Description René Krell 2009-03-31 14:35:44 UTC

Version:           1.11.1 (using 4.2.1 (KDE 4.2.1) "release 106", KDE:KDE4:Factory:Desktop / openSUSE_11.1)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.27.19-3.2-default

After changing to IMAP I get several problems with resource mapping from the IMAP server to KMail:
Under a newly created IMAP account "NAME (IMAP) I get a regular "inbox" where the mails go, which is fine so far. Below that regular inbox I get a further subfolder "inbox" (which should not be shown). Trying to delete it I get a messagebox "Could not delete resource", which I get repeatedly now even after restart of KMail.

Changing the subscriptions over the IMAP account didn't help somehow.

I will append some snapshots.

Comment 4 René Krell 2009-03-31 14:46:07 UTC

Notes:
Deleting from the IMAP regular inbox works.
Filtering incoming mails from that IMAP account is blocked while the error messagebox is open (which is strange, but seems to implemented this way).
With this error, I get the same mails as duplicates more and more times each time the account is fetched (which is the worst effect of it).

Further note:
Other people using the same account with Thunderbird or Windows Live Mail.

Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report.

KMail2 was released in 2011, and the entire code base went through significant changes. We are currently in the process of porting to Qt5 and KF5. It is unlikely that these bugs are still valid in KMail2.

We welcome you to try out KMail 2 with the KDE 4.14 release and give your feedback.
