Re: [kde] Kmail and fetch mail lockup

Seems like Knode was written by the same people unless I'm missing something
there, too. I've found that when I read new posts (whoops, just had to wait
for Kmail to finish it's check) if Knode does it's scheduled check it decides
to make what I'm reading disappear. That is I will click on a post and have
it's text appear in the article viewer pane. If Knode scans the group the
text in the view pane disappears!

Thanks to Bram Schoenmakers for pointing me to the bug about this. I just
wouldn't have believed that an app like Kmail in a project like KDE could
be this braindead!

One of the comments on the but suggested using fetchmail to get mail and
then have KDE get it locally. I used fetchmail to get mail for pine until
I swithced to Kmail and then I turned fetchmail off. How do I set KDE up
to get mail from fetchmail. I did some checking when I first setup Kmail
but didn't see anything and then never got back to it.

Thanks.

I must be missing someting because I don't think Kmail would be
braindead. Whenever Kmail gets mail from my pop server it "locks" up -
that is it ignores all input and refuses to respond to any input until it
is done and then it starts processing input again. I figure an app like
Kmail must be smarter than that and should be able to get mail while
still responding to input so is there a setting or configuration tips
that I can check.

Thanks.
