I have a similar problem using the save version of Kmail with Cyrus imapd. (Installed from suse rpms for opensuse 10.1 and 10.2. Server is also suse 10.2. I'm using ssl, and have an 8 minute mail checking interval, yet leaving kmail sit for hours will usually show the wrong numbers of new mails in each folder, or no mails at all. This means I have the check each folder where sieve scripts might have deposited mail. I've subscribed to these folder, so kmail should keep them current. There seem to be a lot of problems with the count of new/unread messages and IMAP: bug #141606 (this one) bug #136070 bug #133871 bug #131917 bug #120914 bug #120487 bug #104190 bug #102165 bug #92272 bug #83893 The reports all seem slightly different, so I don't know if there are any duplicates. I'm having this problem too as long as I can remember. I guess this problem is forgotten about, and is therefore postponed :| In every update of kmail I hope it got fixed but it has been idle hope the last few years :/ My full problem description: The number indicating the amount of unread/new mails in imap folders keep showing up wrong. As soon as I open an imap folder the amount changes to the right amount. After I change to another imap folder and leave kmail idle for some time, the amount changes back to a wrong value. I'm using kmail 1.9.9, which is included in ubuntu hardy. The imap server is running courier 3.0.8.. I had forgotten about this. My own personal solution is to use evolution instead of kmail. I have not checked back to see if kmail is corrected for this. I think the problem is that the developers have convinced themselves that kmail is following the book, and the problem is that the imap server is doing the wrong thing. Odd that every other e-mail client I use gets this right. Only kmail reports incorrect information... Roger Never encountered this problem since KDE 4.2+. Anyone else or is this fixed? |
