It doesn't appear to be a network problem for a couple of reasons. I run my own mail server and it's sitting right here on my local subnet. There's no problem communicating with it on either port 25 or 110. (I don't use imap, so that isn't involved.) Kmail itself doesn't exhibit any symptoms when I'm reading mail. It's only when I have Composer open. I'm not using LDAP or any sort of external addressbook, and I'm not sure why Composer would be accessing the addressbook while I'm in the middle of writing an email. I can see it happening on either opening or closing Composer, but not mid sentence. (Which, of course, doesn't mean it isn't happening. I'm just not sure why it would.) The only external resource I can think of that Composer would be accessing as I'm writing is the spellchecker and turning off automatic (ie inline) spellchecking doesn't mitigate the issue. Is anyone using or tried to use an external editor with Kmail recently? If not, would someone be willing to take a moment and attempt to do so and see if it works correctly for you? -- "When you're through changing, you're through." - Bruce Barton
