Description BORGULYA Gábor 2006-11-04 15:09:08 UTC 
Version:           1.9.1 (using KDE KDE 3.5.2)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
OS:                Linux

One of my IMAP mail accounts (not all of them) is handled incorrectly. 

1. Folders not belonging to the mail folders are included into mail synchonisation, even large non-mail files are dowloades by kmail. See the RMKI account on screenshot-1.

2. Some folders evoke error windows, which have to be okayed. This is very annoying, since an automatic mail check set every minute brings multiple error windows every minute - this makes serious work on the comuter impossible. See these error windows on screenshot-2 and screenshot-3. The folders mentiones in these windows seem to be created by Thunderbird - from an other computer I access the same IMAP account with Thunderbird.

The same IMAP account is handled by thunderbird without any error windows or irrelevent folders displayed.

Is this still an issue with KDE 4.3?

I'm sorry I do not have access to the IMAP system any more that triggered the error.
