Description m.wege 2011-12-17 09:52:23 UTC 
Version:           1.99.0
OS:                Linux

I have cached IMAP. When I want to select a trash folder on that account, there is only a window showing "select a collection", but nothing is shown in the window, so I can not select anything.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Kmail-Settings-Accounts-Select the IMAP-account, then change, then extented, then select the trash folder -> the above described window appears.
The account was from a freshly from Kmail1 to Kmail2 version 4.7.4 converted installation.


Expected Results:  
There should be the possiblity to select a trash folder.

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 3.2.0-5-generic
Compiler: gcc

Need more infos It works fine here.
Comment 2 m.wege 2011-12-17 12:06:41 UTC 
Hmm, what could that more info be? I guess a screenshot would not help?
Comment 3 m.wege 2011-12-17 12:09:35 UTC 
I know that I had a version of KDE 4.7.2 or 1 where it worked too. On another system, but using the same installation. So may be it was possible once ad if you had made your choice in an earlier version of Kmail where it worked, it works now too and fails only for freshly migrated systems?
Comment 4 m.wege 2011-12-17 23:18:52 UTC 
Just noticed something else. I set up a new IMAP-account. This IMAP-account had during the setup process the word "Mülleimer"(German for Trash) already written in the field, when I clicked on the icon, I was shown folders and I could select them. So the bug only seems to appear as the result of a conversion process of a Kmail1-installation. Then the word "Mülleimer"/Trash is missing and there is nothing shown to select.
Hope this helps.

comment #4: not it's ok just dialog box doesn't open collection tree => you can't see it
Comment 6 Silver Salonen 2012-01-29 12:08:31 UTC 
I have the same problem with KMail 4.8.0 and a newly added IMAP-account. "Select collection" dialog is just empty. Maybe the problem is that the resource is not yet fully synced into Akonadi or smth?

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.
Comment 8 Denis Kurz 2017-01-07 22:31:45 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.
