Bug ID: 311667
Severity: normal
Version: 4.9.4
Priority: NOR
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: If KMail is launched at startup time it will stay
Offline.
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Linux
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: Archlinux Packages
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Component: general
Product: kmail2
If KMail is launched at startup time then it will be stay Offline until you
restart it, the Work Online menu option wont't do anything.
I suspect there could be a race condition here because while NetworkManager is
launched far earlier at boot time (thanks to systemd) the KDE environment may
not be able to setup a working internet connection fast enough before
Kontact/Kmail is invoked.
I use a bash script as a work around that sleeps for ten seconds and then
launch Kontact.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. System Settings -> Startup and Shutdown -> Add Program -> kontact --iconify
2.
3.
Actual Results:
Log out and in again: it should work - meaning KMail will be Online.
Reboot: -- it shoudln't work now. Kmail will be launched Offline and the only
way to change it back online is to restart the app (or the whole Kontact PIM
Suite).
Expected Results:
When Kmail/Kontact is started it is already online.
