Bug 283345

Version:           4.7 (using KDE 4.7.1) 
OS:                Linux

Given the incredible instability of KMail2 with akonadi, I can't even begin to guess what triggered the behavior described below. But it is critical and a huge showstopper

I have a kmail2 new configuration (created anew on empty  .kde config dir) with 4 imap servers and a local folder. For all the imap servers I configured the trash folder location upon account config creation. I also created a number of identities (roughly associated one to one with the imap configs) and I configured sent, draft and template folders for each identity.

All of a sudden, after 2 days of use of kmail2, after having to restart akonadi in order to unstuck a non-displaying message from one of the imap servers, I discovered that all my folder configs were utterly scrambled. Not deleted, but scrambled. That meant that my sent mail from one identity was saved in a randomly chosen folder from another imap server than the one associated with the identity.

This is a huge showstopper, and a huge security hole (surreptitiously saving private emails on the inappropriate imap server is a big no).

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
I don't even dare to think this will happen again on my current config.

I'm not sure what triggers the behavior. I guess it is akonadi that becomes utterly confused about the way it identifies items/folders and saves the wrong state to the config database.


Expected Results:  
Folder configurations (especially for sent and trash) should be preserved religiously.
