Screen shot of error message

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.7.0) 
OS:                Linux

I have KMail setup to automatically sort mails into (cached) IMAP folders when checking for mail by using local filters. This has worked well with my mail provider (gmx.net) in all versions of KDE prior to 4.7.

Since I upgraded to 4.7, I'm getting an error message every time a message is moved by a filter: Error while uploading message (unexpected end of data), also see attached screen shot. I'm seeing this on two separate machines, and guess it's rather unlikely that my mail provider fiddled with their server exactly when I upgraded to 4.7. Hence, something must have changed in the way KMail handles incoming mail via disconnected IMAP.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Use a local filter to move your incoming mail between folders.


Expected Results:  
It should just work. (tm) :)

I can confirm this behaviour!

This kdepim version is not maintained anymore. Retry with kdepim 4.7.0

After installing kdepim 4.7.0 from Ubuntu experimental, running into
numerous problems, and seeing how many people on the mailing lists are
having similar, fundamental issues, I'd like to ask you to please
reconsider.

If you declare KMail1 unmaintained while KMail2/Akonadi has not reached
production quality, you are effectively leaving KMail users without
alternatives but switching to other mail clients.

Thanks,

	Georg

Trojita looks interesting.
Comment 7 Andreas K. Huettel 2011-12-16 00:01:18 UTC
This is a duplicate of bug 289084, and the patch attached there seems to resolve the problem.
