I too have had - and still have - various non-fatal problems

As they used to say, "Close, but no cigar".
I've got a new minor problem, and I'm interested to know
if anyone else has it.
I'm using KMail2 on my laptop exclusively with IMAP/dovecot
on a local server; and with Fedora-16/KMail2 on the laptop
I get a frequent message on the laptop that
contact with the server has been lost.
This doesn't seem to have any adverse effect;
I still seem get new email and am able to read it.
Another minor symptom: I sometimes get the message "Please wait"
(or something to that effect) and the message screen is hidden.
I find I have to logout or re-boot, after which the emails appear.
What I do, when this happens, is I close KMail and then in a console window, I
run "sudo pkill imap" about a half-dozen times followed by "sudo pkill
pop3" a
half-dozen times, then "sudo pkill kmail" a half-dozen times then
"akonadictl
stop" two or three times until I get the message that Akonadi is not running.
Then I am able to start KMail back up and all is good with the world for
awhile (anywhere from a few hours to a few days.)
