Description Árpi 2012-01-17 18:07:33 UTC

Version:           1.99.0 (using KDE 4.7.3) 
OS:                Linux

Clicking folder "Inbox" on the folder list opens the message list, but if I click a message, it cannot open the message. The status remains "Synchronizing folder Inbox" forewer.
This only happens after starting up the computer. Kmail starts up after login, and downloads new messages (via pop3) automatically. Filters move messages to other folders. However, many messages remain in the Maildir, under inbox/new. If I stop akonadi, remove these files, and start kmail again, it can start normally, and open messages.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Shut down the computer with kmail running.
2. Start it up again, log in, kmail comes up.
3. Wait till kmail downloads messages, and filters file them into folders.
4. Open inbox.
5. Click a message in the message list.

Actual Results:  
The message is not opened, a message is displayed that asks the user to wait. Status remains "Synchronizing folder inbox" forever. Progress bar remains at 0 %.

Expected Results:  
The message should be opened :)

OS: Linux 3.0.0-14-generic (i686) Kubuntu 11.10
Compiler: gcc

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.

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.
