Description Ferdinand Gassauer 2010-10-03 17:22:03 UTC

Version:           1.13.5 (using KDE 4.5.1) 
OS:                Linux

certain mails form a few partners are treated strangely
the subject in mail headers shows (no subject) and the mails are not sorted correctly in repect to their date.
inspecting the source shows that there is a subject and a date

Reproducible: Sometimes

still in 4.5.3
such mails are at the wrong end of the sorted list -  I use date descending to have the newest mails on top.

very enoying, because I tend to miss new mails or discover them too late.

I can confirm this bug for KDE 4.5.4/Kmail 1.13.5/FC 14. After changing into a new IMAP folder some mails are displayed with the following parameter:

Subject .... : (No Subject)
Receiver ... : Unknown
Date ....... : 1970-01-01 01:00:00
Size ....... : 2.4 KiB (correct size)

Choosing "Check Mail in this folder" (aka. F5) doesn't help. The invalid values are still there.

Clicking on the message will show the message with a correct subject, Receiver, Date etc... in the main panel but not in the message list.

If you do a resort (clicking on "Subject", "Date" or "Size" etc...) the entries in the message list will restore to the normal values.

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.
