When I run kmailcvt to import my email from icedove (Debian's Thunderbird), it finishes without errors, but some folders doesn't get imported. Several hours after kmailcvt has finished, the emails' files in the maildir resource continue to grow, whithout having any clue about when the process is complete. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Erase the KMail/Akonadi/Nepomuk configuration and data with the following commands: cd ~ akonadictl stop find .kde .local .config -name '*kmail*' -exec rm -rf \{\} \; find .kde .local .config -name '*akonadi*' -exec rm -rf \{\} \; find .kde .local .config -name '*nepomuk*' -exec rm -rf \{\} \; rm -rf ~/.local/share/local-mail/ 2. Launch kmailcvt and import the Thunderbird emails (10GB more or less). It lasts around 1h, and it ends without errors. 3. Monitor the maildir repository for new mails. In my case, it is located at ~/.local/share/akonadi_maildir_resource_0. I do a "find . > /tmp/maildir-`date +%Y%m%d%H%M`.txt" there from time to time with these results: -rw-r--r-- 1 jcouto jcouto 556444 Jun 8 17:49 maildir-201306081749.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 jcouto jcouto 556574 Jun 8 17:50 maildir-201306081750.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 jcouto jcouto 557742 Jun 8 17:52 maildir-201306081752.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 jcouto jcouto 560207 Jun 8 18:00 maildir-201306081800.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 jcouto jcouto 561375 Jun 8 18:03 maildir-201306081803.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 jcouto jcouto 565531 Jun 8 18:12 maildir-201306081812.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 jcouto jcouto 8436095 Jun 8 19:44 maildir-201306081944.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 jcouto jcouto 8436095 Jun 8 20:06 maildir-201306082006.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 jcouto jcouto 8436095 Jun 8 20:50 maildir-201306082049.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 jcouto jcouto 8436095 Jun 8 21:51 maildir-201306082151.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 jcouto jcouto 8436095 Jun 9 00:10 maildir-201306090010.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 jcouto jcouto 8436095 Jun 9 10:43 maildir-201306091043.txt Note that kmailcvt has finished around Jun 8 18:00, while the repository continues growing for several hours. Actual Results: On Jun 9, I miss some folders in the imported email. Besides, Kmail2 is extremely slow when I select any local folder. Expected Results: There should be a way to know when the import process is finished. I'm not sure where my emails is between kmailcvt has ended and they appear in the file system. What would have happened if I had turned off my computer just when kmailcvt had completed?
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.
