I just found the following sentence in kmails help page: "Invoking KMail for the first time creates a folder called Mail in your home folder. This folder contains the initial folders (inbox, outbox, sent-mail, trash and drafts)." Beside that it does not create a folder called Mail in my home folder but a folder called ~/.local/share/local-mail/ it does not contain trash and drafts Can't reproduce. Don't know. I started a new user. but do you stopped akonadi before to remove all ? Yes, no process is running for my testuser. Let me explain my setup: I'm running a normal KDE session as user koller but I want to test the self-compiled KDE stuff (a different version than the session from user "koller"). In a konsole I "su - kdetrunk" to a new testuser. Under this user "kdetrunk" I'm testing now this KDE/4.9 within a Xephyr session. The self-compiled KDE is installed under /home/KDE4 I start everything with this script and the "clean" argument: =========================== #!/bin/sh #clean up previous KDE4 stuff if [ "$1" = "clean" ] then cd rm -Rf /tmp/kde-kdetrunk /var/tmp/kdecache-kdetrunk .kde4 .config .local .qt .strigi .xine fi # no KDE3 in PATH export PATH=/home/KDE4/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin Xephyr :4 -ac -screen 1280/278x800/200 -nolisten inet6 -nodri -noxv -fakexa -name TEST & export DISPLAY=:4 echo "display set to:" $DISPLAY sleep 5 startkde =========================== If you want I can check other things,debug flags, attach a debugger etc. Just tell me in which source the directories should be created Same problem with Arch Linux and KDE 4.9 (3.4.9-1-ARCH). Same issues here with 4.9.1 as mentioned above; i've tried several test-users, problem stays the same. Problem still exists with 4.9.3 on openSUSE. Same problem on a new German language Chakra 2012.10 install with KDE 4.9.2 (in the meantime updated to 4.9.3). The language is relevant, because kmail surprisingly created the following folders in ~/.local/share/local-mail: - Postausgang - Posteingang - .Posteingang.directory - trash - .trash.directory - Versendete Nachrichten A folder "drafts" (or "Entwürfe") is missing. Actually I don't think it's a good idea to use localized names for the standard folders, at least not in the file system, but that might a different issue. I tried again with a new user on openSuse 12.1, KDE 4.9.4, german language Simply logging into KDE for the first time and start kmail I still have this situation: Below ~/.local/share it creates a folder "akonadi_maildir_resource_0" with the following subfolders ONLY: Postausgang Posteingang Versendete Nachrichten (in english this would be: outbox, inbox, sent mails) Git commit 60b1b80f5749b08d63d34b9049a80c9433aaa799 by David Faure. Committed on 02/03/2013 at 22:18. Pushed by dfaure into branch 'KDE/4.10'. The overuse of the [ ] operator on QHashes, lead to storing invalid collections.
