I've already done as specified in bug 326480 : deleted my folder ~/.local/share/akonadi and it has changed nothing. 
but I suppose there's a hacking problem because we have passwords sent by mail and registered on KMail which have been stolen.
Comment 1 Denis Kurz 2016-09-24 20:34:04 UTC
This bug has only been reported for versions older than KDEPIM 4.14 (at most akonadi-1.3). Can anyone tell if this bug still present?

If noone confirms this bug for a recent version of akonadi (part of KDE Applications 15.08 or later), it gets closed in about three months.

I have similar symptoms with PIM 4.14.2.  This is with a fresh install of Mint 17.3.  I thought perhaps I'd broken something during the installation until I saw other people have had similar problems.  

Grateful for any ideas.
Comment 3 Peter 2016-11-05 00:34:55 UTC
Actually,  the solution to Bug 362138 from Ekeluo Chukwuogor seems to have worked for me, too.  Thank you Ekeluo.
