Description John Floyd 2011-12-23 23:28:18 UTC

Version:           4.7 (using KDE 4.7.3) 
OS:                Linux

Have been running everything on a 1G netbook, for over a year.

Latest version HAS to have akonadi and it appears nepomuk running.  Chewing up netbook limited resopurces like crazy.

Got kmail working satisfactory then after a reboot not working.  Wont sync to imap server now.  Wont let me delete local kmail emails!  Wont let me add a new imap source. 

I really like its interfacing with korganizer which now has other problems.

Will there be an option to run everything outside of a database, like it used to run, with much lower memory usage.

Now looking for a useful email calendar system.

Kdepim used to be a reasonable system for local use.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
run kmail.

Actual Results:  
basically hangs syncing imap resource

Expected Results:  
Just works like it has for quite a long time.

Not a bug.

No. but you're free to use kdepim 4.4.11 (at your own risks)

For further reports:
- one issue = one bug report. Mixing everything makes triaging harder.
