Description Torsten Grote 2013-03-11 10:21:40 UTC
Around the time the code that should fix disconnected IMAP was pushed, I started to see a severe and nasty problem in kmail: Some folders with thousands of mails 'loose' the latest mails and need to resync them everytime I click on this folder.

Some people in IRC have the same problem. They said this might be due to mails with empty body that cause triggerExpunge being called.

I also see a lot of KIMAP::ExpungeJob::handleResponse: Unhandled response:  * 5721 EXISTS but I don't know i this is related.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click on an affected folder and see how mail count drops and how new mails vanish
2. Wait for resync or select the folder again, to see news mails being fetched from server again

Observed this on openSUSE as well. Some other features of this bug:

1. Does not target the whole account, only specific folders
2. The IMAP resource specifically asks for deletion of the messages
3. It only occurs if you have messages with missing bodies in the resource, using disconnected mode: removing the messages with missing bodies makes the problem disappear

There is a review request  now that should fix the problem: http://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/109914/
