My resolution so far is to reboot. Neither a login/logout of the user, a restart of kdm/X has worked. This happens on several different machines with different versions of SUSE and KDE and kmail. All the same ISP with different user accounts. I haven't narrowed it down any more than this. It took quite a long time to get this far.
Hmm. Is nscd running? If it is, the next time it happens, try shutting it off (rcnscd stop) instead of rebooting
nscd is running. What's the theory? I will try your suggestion IF it ever happens again. Could be months, could be today, could be tomorrow. I may have a way to produce the error "on demand" but it seems to require leaving kmail up and running overnight; system has to go through the midnight hour and any cron or other system checks that happen after midnight and are usually finished by 5AM.
