Bug#900895: kmail: KMail malfunctioning: Red email folders, no emails can be viewed; "Unable to fetch item from backend (collection-1): Unable to contact resource"

[Jens Radloff <plixplox@yahoo.de>]

Hi hefee,

I strongly assume that it makes no sense if I _currently_ would test my PIM 
environment in the current Debian testing release because the behavior 
described in this bug issue did not occur anymore since the last time I 
updated this bug issue on Wed, 27 Feb 2019. 

This is now the 5th day after Wed, 27 Feb 2019 that the behavior did not occur 
again. Before that, between Sunday, 24th 2019 and Wed, 27 Feb 2019, the 
behavior occurred very often. let's say about 30 times.

Since Wed, 27 Feb 2019 I installed at least one system update via apt-get, 
could it be that this update resolved the behavior? I cannot remember which 
package this update updated.

Or could it be that a misconfiguration of one of the remote mail servers which 
I am utilizing, or a erroneous software environment the respective mail server 
is running in, temporary could caused the behavior?

I will report new occurrences of the behavior in this bug issue, but I do not 
know when these occurrences will happen again.

Regards,

Jens
