Hi, When I open Kmail the small windows for the passwords ( 2 Email addresses ) are hidden
behind the main interface, if I do nothing then Kmail crashes. if I quickly move the main interface
to expose the password windows and enter a password then it works Ok.
Any suggestions for a longer delay before crashing, stop it crashing, and for having the password
windows on top.

Can you post a screenshot showing the exact problem you're having?

Hi, I don't seem to be able to get a screen shot showing the problem. however
I don't think one would be of much help. Basically there seems to be two problems,
1) When starting Kmail ( fullscreen ) the small window to enter a password is not visable,
it is there but covered by the Kmail screen, so Kmail has to be moved or minimized to
enter a password, and very quickly due to the next problem.
2) When starting Kmail if a password is not entered very quickly kmail produces an error
message then Crashes. the error message is :-

The Kmail programme encountered a fatal error and will terminate now.
The error was:
Timeout trying to get lock.

I hope this helps. Dave P..

Please file a bug report on bugs.kde.org, include your KMail version, and please try to provide a "backtrace" (the crash dialog will help you in generating one).
