           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: imap
        AssignedTo: kmail-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: martin bdd-music de

I cannot create new a new IMAP account in KMail using the KMail Setup Dialog. When trying to recieve the namespaces for privates, shares etc I get an error message saying "no connection to host <hostname>". I get the same error message when I try to probe the host for encryption and login methods. If I create the account ignoring these problems, I get the same error message when I try to get email from this account.

The connection parameters are checked and 100% correct. Getting email from existing IMAP accounts works fine though. I noticed the problem with OpenSuse 10.2 and Kubuntu 7.04.

I narrowed the problem down to the KIO-IMAP slave because trying to access the account from konqueror (adress: imap://<user> <mailhost>) fails with the same error message.

Feel free to contact me for further informations. I hope the bug will be fixed soon, 'cause I need my IMAP.
