Description Michael Schuerig 2014-03-07 11:08:26 UTC

I have created an mbox-based account in KMail which is not updated, either on an interval sync or a manual update. No matter whether I try it in KMail or Akonadi Console. The only way to force a reload is to change the configuration, eg toggle the Read-Only option.

Reproducible: Always




Kevin Krammer has looked into this already, see https://lists.debian.org/debian-kde/2014/03/msg00008.html for his tentative diagnosis.

Comment 1 Kevin Krammer 2014-03-07 14:38:24 UTC

A quick look into the sources show that the MBOX resource specific code does not call reloadFile(). The iCal resource, for example, does that in retrieveItems().

Comment 2 andros 2014-05-24 18:19:25 UTC

I can confirm this with KDE SC 4.13 on openSUSE 13.1.

Comment 3 Denis Kurz 2016-09-24 20:34:02 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.

Comment 4 Denis Kurz 2017-01-07 22:13:09 UTC

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.
