Hi,

after a recent upgrade, I can't send mails with KMail anymore.
They are stuck in the outbox - error message is "Failed to get D-Bus interface of mailfilteragent."
I noticed that there is no Akonadi Filter agent when I start akonadiconsole.

It occurred after a recent upgrade:

Any advice?

I also have some problems with akonadi after the upgrade: Can't send or receive mails.
But my error message is a bit different: "There were problems trying to queue the message for sending: Failed to append item"

There is a discussion about a similar (or the same) issue in the opensuse-factory mailing list:
https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-fac ... 00207.html

Sounds to be related and I have the same trouble with kmail 5.4.0, KDE Frameworks 5.29.0, KDE Applications 16.12.0, in OpenSUSE Tumbleweed.
