The last instruction I got was to try and trace what's happening to the
network traffic. But I didn't get any instruction on how I was supposed
to do that. I was finally able to get some kind of success by setting up
the account as "cached" or "disconnected" IMAP. But that basically loses
the real benefits of IMAP. So, until somebody can explain why the
"network problem" occurs only with KMail and not with Thunderbird, I'm
sticking to Thunderbird. I took the last response as a lack of interest
in reviewing the problem.
