Bug ID: 455423
Summary: Forced to reboot on dbus error.
Product: kmail2
Version: 5.19.3
Platform: Gentoo Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: composer

Screenshot of error message.
SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug
symbols.
See
https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Compose an email message
2. Choose "send"
OBSERVED RESULT
Message is moved to outbox folder, and hangs up there. Attempts to send using
"send queued messages" always fail. The only way I know of to fix it is to
reboot the system. When I do reboot, an error message is displayed:
E-mail Sending Failed
Failed to get D-Bus interface of mailfilteragent.
This is an intermittent error. I suppose one in a thousand (0.1%) of the
messages I send fail this way. A screenshot of the error message is attached.
EXPECTED RESULT
The KMail composer should be able to connect with mailfilteragent, and thence
with my email provider via the internet. This happens about 99.9% of the time.
And if there is an error with D-Bus, I should be able to see the notification
without rebooting the whole system.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

I'm posting a bug report.
