Description arne anka 2015-01-25 19:17:21 UTC
configured a POP3 account (GMX), but whenever i delete a mail there (plus empty trash), after a while it pops up again in the Inbox as "new".

in opera 12 (M2), there are two settings:
"Leave Mails on Server [x]"
"Until I permanently delete them [x]"

While Kmail2 offers the first one, one similar to the second is absent.
I am not sure what exactly  goes wrong, maybe I just missed a config option in that not exactly intuitive setup?

Reproducible: Always

The "Until I permanently delete them"  functionality is simply not available in kmail.

Though it should not redownload them after you have deleted them locally though.

So i think that you should spawn a new wish report about The "Until I permanently delete them"  functionality.

And also please update to the new kdepim based in KDE Frameworks 5 and check if you still have this problem.
