I just got a new IMAP account, and tried to configure kmail to use it. I opened kmail settings, went to accounts and clicked new, then selected IMAP server. A dialog came up, asking for access to my wallet for an accunt named "IMAP account 5" (or thereabout). I confirm, and a dialog for configuring that account came up, prefilled with my username and password from another account. STUPID!! I correct the account name to something useful, replaces the username and password and clicks OK. A dialog comes up asking for access to the wallet for the renamed account. DOOOOOOOOOH, DUDE! But I grant it. Now starts a fight with various error messages, they appear in stacks. Some of them claims that "the user does not allow access to the wallet". Which is not so, of course. At this point I am not sure if the information I gor for the account is wrong, or if it is just kmail that is so bad in this iteration that it does not support creating a new IMAP account at all. I do know one thing, though: How sadly horrible! -- Anders _______________________________________________ KDE PIM users mailing list Subscription management: https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kdepim-users
