I'll probably need to add some info here: my $HOME is mounted from NFS, and my system crashed hard, so there were probably quite a few stale locks somewhere in the system, so KMail was probably unable to open some files for reading or writing. I guess that is the case since for the short time it was running, no mail contents were shown. Deleting the "imap" directory in $HOME/.kde/share/apps/kmail seems to have fixed the issue, but of course that means re-downloading a whole lot of data from the IMAP server. If that had occurred with locally stored mail, the results would probably have been less favourable. Just moving the files off the NFS mount and copying them back did not help. Merging with bug 193891. Thanks *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 193891 *** |
