What do you means by "I edited incoming accounts, "Local Folders"," ? I am now on my web mail account, because I am not able to get KMail to work. I just hope that I will be able to restore my e-mails and get these ones going into the web mail now. I am in the process of going from Mandriva 2010.2 to Fedora 20. There is a new feature, Settings - Configure KMail - Accounts - Local Folders - Modify. I wanted to understand what this was all about. I think the idea is that different computers can send e-mails to the same place in a file system and all computers showing them all on their screens. I do not know exactly what happened, but I was looking around in there to find out what this was all about, since I had not seen it before. Then all of a sudden all 13000 e-mails were gone. Then after more looking to find out what happened the system told me I had deleted a folder with deleting an account, I believe. The e-mails are still at their place, home/[user name]/.local/share/local-mail/, and all the settings seems to me to be as they should, given the idea that the "incoming account" "Local Folders" should retreive both on start up and on manual mail check. I do not see any other way out of this than to remove the package "kdepim" and install it again, but the system seems to refuse my attempts to do so. I would very much like to have your ideas about how to go on from here. Right now KMail says that there are no e-mails in the system at all, at the same time all 13000 are at the place where the account "Local Folders" is retreving from. Please answer me.

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. |
