Description docali 2011-08-06 06:51:11 UTC
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.7.0) 
OS:                Linux

Using the new Kmail I sometimes cannot see new emails after downloading. For debug purposes I checked the web interface of my provider first, see the mail, fetch mails in kmail, something happens as the lower right bar is moving. The the new mail counter in the tray increases, when I habe the kmail windows open I can see the message and immediately it disappears. I can't find it in any folder until I restart Kmail, then it is correctly sorted.

I use 4.7.0-10.1 from Opensuse KDE 4.7 Core Repo


Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
Occasional bug, reproducible by fetching mail


Expected Results:  
Mail should be displayed correctly without reboot

installed, propably related packages

Do you still see this problem with current 4.10.0 ?

I get this (or a very similar problem) with KMail 4.10.5.
I never witnessed the new mail flashing in its folder, I just get a notification that new mail exists in the folder, I can see it in my android device but it doesn't appear in KMail until I restart it.

This bug has only been reported for versions before 4.14, which have been unsupported for at least two years now. Can anyone tell if this bug still present?

If noone confirms this bug for a Framework-based version of kmail2 (version 5.0 or later, as part of KDE Applications 15.12 or later), it gets closed in about three months.
Comment 4 Denis Kurz 2017-01-07 22:32:13 UTC
Just as announced in my last comment, I close this bug. If you encounter it again in a recent version (at least 5.0 aka 15.08), please open a new one unless it already exists. Thank you for all your input.
