Version: 4.6 (using KDE 4.5.95) OS: Linux I have two imap accounts. One works properly, i.e. it does show all emails in the inbox. The other one only shows emails that arrived after kmail was started. the imap's url is mailbox.rwth-aachen.de:993 If I have a look at the account in the akonadi console it does show the correct number of emails in the left pane it does not show any items in the right pane though. This did work with former versions of akonadi, yet I do not remember when it changed, I'd guess one month ago. Reproducible: Always
This happens to the second imap-server one adds. If I add the server I mentioned in the first comment as the first one it does display all messages. And the one that previously worked does not show any messages if added as second imap server. libakonadi4-4.6.0svn.rev1216163-3.1.i586 libakonadiprotocolinternals1-1.5.0.60git.1295707206-2.1.i586 akonadi-runtime-1.5.0.60git.1295707206-2.1.i586 akonadi-4.6.40.git.1297553888-3.1.i586 kmail-4.6.40.git.1297553888-3.1.i586 The akonadiconsole does not show anything either.
Could you use the akonadiconsole to see if the second account has any items with a remote id that is null? (Tab db Console, query "select * from pimitemtable where remoteId = null")
I run akonadiconsole and got this output when clicking on the KMail folder: posting retrieval request for item 63748 there are 1 queues and 0 items in mine processing retrieval request for item 63748 parts: ("ENVELOPE") of resource: "akonadi_mixedmaildir_resource_1" request for item 63748 still pending - waiting akonadi_mixedmaildir_resource_1(29349)/akonadiresource (maildir): Failed to read item "{869a924c-06ab-4538-97df-bbd3cffb991b}" in Maildir "/home/mcv/Mail/inbox" akonadi_mixedmaildir_resource_1(29349)/akonadiresource (maildir): "Error while reading mails from folder " continuing request for item 63748 "{869a924c-06ab-4538-97df-bbd3cffb991b}" failed: "Resource was unable to deliver item" ItemRetrieverException : Resource was unable to deliver item Actually there is a file named like above (in ~/Mail/inbox/new), but it's only one byte long, hexedit shows: 0x0a.
Aaargh, wrong bug. This was supposed to go to 263223.
Reassigning, it's in fact likely something in the ETM.
I see the same even for imap accounts: /home/username/.local/share/akonadi/file_db_data/ contains empty files, e.g.: 100497_r0 with 0 byte
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.
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.
