I have configured dimap account for gmail. I have lot of folders in my mailbox. Some folders never download to kmail and always show error connection broken no matter how many times I try.

Is it possible to know the name of the folders (labels for gmail) that do not download, to see if they have some characters that kmail does not like?.

Or if you start kmail from a konsole, to see the messages kmail writes there (if there are any)?.

Folder name doesn't contain any special character other than space. 
I tried to start kmail in console and reproduce the issue but it doesn't show any special message in konsole. It just shows "The connection to account <my account name> is broken." in kmail status bar.

I get something similar. Sometimes some folders (not necessarily always the same) don't get downloaded and I get an error message.
Comment 4 Ruchir Brahmbhatt 2009-04-06 12:43:35 UTC
I noticed that it stops at mails having large attachemnts(>5MB). If it fails to download attachment, shouldn't it continue downloading other mails?

This appears to be resolved with kmail2 4.10
