Description davidblunkett 2013-05-26 16:00:36 UTC

I don't know what cause this, there appears to be no error or problem I can identify but this message crops up all day every day, right now I've got 11 on them pending. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Turn the computer on use KDE and kamil these message just pop up all through the day, they are next to useless in conveying any meaningful information.  They don't appear to indicate any problem but they are annoying.
Actual Results:  
"Resouce KMail Folders is broken. This resource is now online" keep occuring

Expected Results:  
No ""Resouce KMail Folders is broken. This resource is now online" or at least the message should mean something to the user and if there is an error it should indicate some information that might be useful fixing the error.

Kept quite?
Said something usef?

This appears to occur whenever and email is sent either from kmail or from when korganizer sends email reminders...

Confirmed for openSUSE 12.3, kmail2 4.10.5.
Happens with maildirmixed resource.
The condition in comment#1 is not a requirement, it happens when kmail just scans the directory  or otherwise keeps itself busy (which it does a lot on mixed maildir/mbox folders).
The problem also occurs when using "update folder and subfolders" and when modifying the resource in system settings->personal info->akonadi

Comment 3 Volker Kuhlmann 2013-08-15 04:16:23 UTC

This problem frequently occurs when synchronising mixedmaildir folders, e.g. I ran

qdbus org.freedesktop.Akonadi.Control /AgentManager org.freedesktop.Akonadi.AgentManager.agentInstanceSynchronize akonadi_mixedmaildir_resource_0

and kmail is going bananas. It also takes exorbitant amounts of time to do that job - half an hour easily.

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.

I don't see this in 5.1.3 setting to resolved.
