Description Robby Engelmann 2011-12-28 16:36:44 UTC

Version:           4.8 (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

I have a local maildir ressource and my incoming pop-mails are downloaded into a Folder "Posteingang". From this Folder I move via drag&drop all my read mails into subfolders. When I drag&drop --> move one mail to a subfolder I am not able to move another one for the second time (stop symbol is shown when I dragged it to the desired folder.


Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
create a subfolder beyond "Incoming Mails"
drag one mail into this folder
try to drag a second mail into this or any other subfolder

Actual Results:  

moving a second message is not possible

However: moving multiple mails for the very first time after starting kontact is possible

Expected Results:  
moving mails after the very first time after kontact start should be possible

I see this after upgrade from KDE 4.7.4 to 4.8RC1 from kubuntu/beta ppa

reproducible: any time

the same for deleting mails: I can only delete mails once, after that I have to switch to another folder and switch back. Then I can delete another mail.

Perhaps related: refreshing the folder after deletion works not correctly: If I select multiple mails and push the delete-key, some deleted mails are still shown until I switch to another folder and go back again.

Moving works bit more weird that at the beginning: drag&drop mostly do not work. I have to move mails via the context menu after right-click on a mail.

Can anybody confirm this?

Is it a maildir or mixedmaildir resource?

Comment 4 Robby Engelmann 2012-01-05 15:39:17 UTC

when I look into akonadi console the name is "akonadi_maildir_ressource_2" and the location is "~/Dokumente/PIM Data/Local Mails".

I confirm: moving messages from inbox to another maildir folder does not work. The message is actually moved from the inbox message list, but reappears there when kmail is restarted.

I upgraded to KDE4.8 RC2. Now, deleting messages seems to work, but moving mails by drag&drop between folders is still impossible.
