Annoying kontact dialog boxes frequently popping up stealing focus

[ITSEF Admin]

Hi all,

since recently (must have started shortly after the update to kontact 
proko2.1.6, though I'm not 100% sure), kontact pops up a "Loading events" 
dialog box each and every time the mail gets synced. This has happened in the 
past,  but for some odd reason it just got worse as these boxes now steal the 
input focus whenever and wherever they appear. This is highly annoying when 
typing something somewhere, as letters will get lost during these moments. 
I'm aware of https://intevation.de/roundup/kolab/issue1291, so I assume it's 
got something to with this. I'm just suprised that it suddenly got much worse 
than what it was - the boxes were always there, but the focus-stealing has 
never been *that* bad up until now. Any ideas?

Regards,

Thomas
