Description Dennis Schridde 2010-03-28 20:07:57 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.4.1)
Compiler:          gcc 4.4.3 Gentoo 4.4.3 p1.0
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

Cut from manual IMAP conversation:
9 list "INBOX" "*"
* LIST (\HasChildren) "/" "INBOX"
9 OK List completed.

KMail shows a folder INBOX/INBOX in the folder list, but then produces an error message upon mail-sync ~"on reading the folder INBOX/INBOX": ~"the file or directory INBOX/INBOX does not exist".

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.
