Is this still an issue in KMail 5.1.1? I had a similar problem, but it seems to be fixed now. Also, possible duplicate of https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=352472. Of course this bug is a duplicate of itself... nevermind Searching E-Mails seems to work better now but I have not tested the results for consistency yet... Once a "search folder" is established pushing "edit search" and changing the search criteria does NOT change the contents (the results) within the search folder. This is still a broken feature. sad, p. Annoying: - refining the search of a search folder has no effect... though the criteria is changed the mails "found" are just a repeated result of the prior search - I tried to search for a completely different name in the header but all the mails of the last search are still in the search folder, no new mails are added, no mails are removed... this happens everytime regardless of whether I change the name of the search folder or not... - also it is not possible to copy a search pattern and create a new refined search folder with a different name - the old search folder just gets renamed (but, as mentioned before, doesn't change the content in any way...) - removing a search criteria is not possible, the button to remove a criteria line is greyed out... - the search folder shows 240 results but the mail list area only shows around 30 mails... All in all, the virtual folder system is not in a working shape. I vote to remove it while it's a mere proof of concept (not even as such it is convincing!) - it scares of users from kmail. If searches do not provide reliable results. You have to trust your mail system if you want to work productivly with it. p. I can reproduce the "Ignores all Settings part" with Kontact 4.14 (branch vendor/intevation). Baloo from 4.14 branch. After a restart of my PC search worked great I got good results etc. But after Closing the Search dialog, working a bit with Kontact and searching again It always showed the results of the last query I ran with the previously opened Search dialog. Regardless of changes I've made. Restarting Kontact and even restarting akonadi with akonadictl restart had no effect on this. I am glad to hear that KDE decided to focus on professional use cases... maybe we start getting something moving here then. Though it feels like the announcements on the KDE pages are completely disconnected from development and bug hunting... p. Thank you for reporting this bug in KDE software.
