Description piedro 2014-09-29 12:34:04 UTC
Obviously the GUI assistant to create an akonadi ressource does create folder structures on the harddrive before user confirmation by clicking on "ok". Aborting leaves the folder structure on the harddrive... 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. cange local mail folder ressource location to something other than ~/.local/share/local-mail 
2. start creating an akonote or another maildir ressource with the akonadi assistant or akonadi console 
3. Abort the creation by hitting "abort" 



Actual Results:  
a new folder local-mail is created though the user never asked the system to do so. ON the contrary demanded  aborting  the process... 

Expected Results:  
don't create folders until the user hits "ok- I confirm"

this seems to be a minor complaint but I belive it is not. the newly created folders interfer with users trying to reset to default, as fodlers are still in place, it's confusing and in the case of knotes creating the "local-mail"-folder it is plain wrong.

After two years not even a comment... why does everybody always tell users to contribute by reporting bugs? This clearly doesn't get any attention at all. 

I am done with it.
