If the messageserver wasn't running, the database likely contains an incorrectly initialized account. Can you try to remove the database (just remove anything *[Dd]ekko* and *qmf* from $XDG_DATA_HOME/$XDG_CACHE_HOME/$XDG_CONFIG_HOME) and restart the message server and then try again to create the account from scratch? If account setup still doesn't work it would be helpful if you could remove the account again as described above, then stop the messageserver service and run it manually in a terminal: QT_LOGGING_RULES="*.debug=true;qt.*.debug=false" /usr/bin/messageserver5 That should provide more verbose output of what is going on between the backend and mail server.
