From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Opera/8.01 (Windows NT 5.2; U; en) Description of problem: KMail wont send any mail. Any attempt to send mail produces dialog that no transport mechanisms are aviable. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kdepim-3.4.1-0.fc4.2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Send mail from KMail using SMTP Actual Results: Error dialog popped out. Expected Results: The email should be sent. Additional info: KMail uses cyrus-sasl. It looks for its plugins in /usr/local/lib/sasl2 - it should look in /usr/lib/sasl2 - when I set SASL_HOME="/usr/lib/sasl2" variable KMail worked perfectly.
Kmail does not hardcoded the SASL path and the SASL_HOME is not used in any libs/SMTP-server/kio_smtp! So, i don't think it's a bug there. It's probaly a old kde configuration, which caused this issue. Could you please try to install all cyrus-sasl* packages and try again if it works. Thanks There's a similar bug http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99632.
(This is a mass update of bugs which have been in the NEEDINFO state unmodified for over a year and have not been confirmed for a still supported version of Fedora Core.) Closing per lack of response to previous request for information. This bug was originally filed against a much earlier version of Fedora Core, and significant changes have taken place since the last version for which this bug is confirmed. Note that FC3 and FC4 are supported by Fedora Legacy for security fixes only. Please install a still supported version and retest. If it still occurs on FC5 or FC6, please reopen and assign to the correct version. Otherwise, if this a security issue, please change the product to Fedora Legacy. Thanks, and we are sorry that we did not get to this bug earlier.
