Bug Description
Backup-gmail does not complete.
I have recently upgraded to the latest kubuntu - see uname output below. I first tried running backup gmail afresh and got the following output:
rinka@personal-
File "./gui.py", line 358, in run
self.
File "/home/
backup.
File "/home/

rfcs = self.fetchRFC82
File "/home/
data = func(self, uid)
File "/home/
ret, data = self.gmail.
File "/usr/lib/
typ, dat = self._simple_
File "/usr/lib/
return self._command_
File "/usr/lib/
raise self.abort(
abort: command: FETCH => socket error: EOF
-------------------
At this point I killed backup-gmail and restarted it for doing incremental backup. But there the tool is currently hanging - there are no further messages
-------------------
[1]+ Done ./gui.py

Additional information on the bug:
If I close the gui error message and restart download without closing gui.py, nothing happens. The abort cancels all activities for the current running verson of gui.py.
If I close gui.py and restart as incremental backup, backup-gmail picks up from where it stopped and continues backing up. Though it fails again with the same error a bit later.
My take: This is a transient error and should just be displayed but the tool should continue.
