Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.delete all akonadi-related files from various KDE dot-directories, also migratorrc files per a post I found 2.reboot 3.restart akonadi 4. add a maildir with 30k message in 4 folders (<10k msgs per folder) 5.click on one of the folders, wait, wait, wait, wait It isn't even obvious how to debug. Actual Results: I sit there in kmail, waiting for the message-list to display. Ditto in akonadiconsole. Stopping/starting akonadi doesn't seem to help. Expected Results: I should have seen my mail, yes?
you use a very old kontact package/akonadi package. we will release in some days 4.11/1.10.1 so try with new packages.
OK, I've upgraded to 4:4.10.5-0ubuntu0.1 (Ubuntu Raring), and the original bug seems to have been resolved. I have a new one, and will open a new ticket.
