Bug#727808: [kdepimlibs] Don't infinitely loop IMAP with wrong SSL session
Package: kdepimlibs
Version: 4:4.10.5-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Forwarded: https://bugs.kde.org/316840
Some friends and I were banned from different IMAP providers because we are
using kmail2. It seems kmail2 (akonadi) sometimes restarts the TCP connection
for an SSL imap (imaps) connection and then infinitely open+closes the
connection with an invalid (old) SSL session. This creates a lot of load on
the IMAP server (which in the end caused a ban for us).
Please backport the patch
https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kdepimlibs/repository/revisions/c3d8ea0a9a24dfeb3ce086fff3ea3b29c279a509
to fix the most problematic part of the bug.
