Version: 4.8 (using KDE 4.8.0) OS: Linux I thought, I am having an akonadi or some other local problem. But somehow Kmail2 deletes the mailbodies of some incoming mails on the IMAP Server. All my IMAP-accounts are effected! I doublechecked directly on the servers: completely empty mails! Less than 1KB file size ... In addition it produces multiple duplicates (50+) of some of these contentless mails with only minimal headers ... This behaviour stopped after two days after updating to KDE 4.8. Since yesterday it started again ... To be honest, I am frustrated, important stuff got lost. thx for reading, piedro Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: I don't know how to reproduce ... I am not an expert, sry, see above ... Actual Results: I don't know how to reproduce ... I am not an expert, sry. see above Expected Results: Instead the software shouldn't delete the message bodies, especially under no circumstances synchronize the empty mails with THE IMAP SERVER.
I suspect spam filtering, after turning it off problem was solved for me (at least ot seems so)
in settings/configure filters, where are the spam filters in the list ? top or bottom ?
I use spamassassin, so it's called "spamassassin service check", I've just unchecked it
I deleted the filters at the bottom of the filter list: 4 filters about spam (they had been created automatically when enabling the spam filter). After that I still had two new empty mails. It seems to be less problematic now but I can't confirm it's due to the removal of the spam filtering because I run thunderbird to get an offline copy of the imap mails. So maybe kmail still looses mails but they get resynchronized by thunderbird ... I just don't know but I don't trust kmail anymore, so I can't go on testing - at least not on my production machine. thx anyway, piedro
Hello, I also lost some mailbodys yesterday :/ There are 3 IMAP accounts in my kmail. I manually moved mails from all 3 accounts to a local folder, one account failed and the mails in the local folder are headers only now. The other 2 worked fine, so I can't really reproduce it. I am running KDE 4.8.0 on slackware64-current.
Greetings, I can confirm this is still an issue - built from 4.7 to 4.8 overnight. Since new build, have received a few E-Mail's from IMAP account where mailbody has been removed (then re-synced to the server so lost there as well) but headers still remain. Don't think it's a filter issue as no spam filters in place (see log below). This is a Gentoo x86_64 build, updating through Portage - E-Mail me if you need further information. [KMail Filter Log] ------------------------------ [10:55:23] Evaluating filter rules: (match all of the following) "<size>" <greater-or-equal> "0" [10:55:23] 1 = "<size>" <greater-or-equal> "0" ( 25444 ) [10:55:23] Filter rules have matched. [10:55:23] Applying filter action: Pipe Through "kmail_clamav.sh" [10:55:24] Evaluating filter rules: (match any of the following) "X-Virus-Flag" <contains> "yes" [10:55:24] 0 = "X-Virus-Flag" <contains> "yes" (no) ------------------------------ Only filters are Clam Anti Virus Check and Virus Handler.
Apologies, This seems to be the same issue as 295484. Messages that are sent through any filter (spam-related or not) that is external to Kmail and cause any modification to the message header cause the issue. This seems related to Kmail 4.8.1 and Akonadi 1.7. Disabling ClamAV filters allows mails to be received from IMAP account without issue. Hope I trust the company filters. :)
I have setup a clean installation of Kubuntu 12.04 including the KDE 4.8.2. According to some other comments that said spam filtering should work now I used the assistant to start spam filerring again and again I lost mail bodies ON THE IMAP SEVER!!! Looks like this is regarded just a minor problem. Loosing mails shouldn't be too bad because noone expects kmail2 to be used on productive stuff, right? I lost two bills, one job instruction for a pitch and two invitations ... If Microsoft or Apple would have a bug like this this community would run rampage with sarcasm and mocking ... But it's our beloved KDE so, naaa, it's not too bad! Annoyed, piedro
I too am having this issue when mail filters are enabled. I am using Kontact 4.8.3 with Kdelibs 4.8.4 on Kubuntu. Manually moving messages to local folders seems to work fine, but the problem seems to occur when I enable spam filters(bogofilter) using the spam wizard. It goes away when I delete the filters. One thing I noticed -- when the problem occurs, I get a bunch of "messages" in my Inbox that have no subject, unknown date, and empty header fields. Let me know if I can help debug this further -- this is a serious issue for me and one I'd love to help solve. I'm not afraid to plunge into the code or use Akonadi Console. I can arrange to be available on IRC (#kontact) as atomopawn at a convenient time if that would help.
hello everybody - I switched to arch now and the version of kde is 4.10.5 it is hard to reproduce but I still loose mailbodies as described above under rare conditions it seems ... but still when using spamassassin or bogofilter here and then (maybe one out of twenty) i get a mail without any body at all ... since those are mails that have been identified as spam this is not such a big issue for me at the moment but it shows that there is still a problem with filtering through external filters ... sorry for not being more specific, thx for reading, piedro
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.
I switched to gnome for productive work, sry, I can not provide anymore specific information on later versions... thx anyway, p.
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.
