I try to use the "expiry" options under the folder properties of some folders, setted to expire readed mails after 30 days and, instead of using "permanently delete expired mails", I setted "Move expired mails to" and selected an existent folder. When I click on "Save preferences and expire now" it should move my readed mails more than 30 days long to the designated folder, but instead, **it just copy them**. P.D.: I'm using KMail in spanish, the labels I said may not correspond to the actual english labels. Sorry for that. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open folder preferences and go to the expiry slope, or right click on a folder and select the expiry option. 2. Set "Expire readed mails after" on and set a number of days. 3. Set "Move expired days to" on, and select an existent folder (preferable empty so you can see the results). 4. Click on the "Save preferences and expire now" button, wait and press again. (You may need to close the folder-property dialog check that it didn't move anything and open again). Actual Results: Kmail only copy the correct mails to the designated folder. Expected Results: Kmail should *move* these mails to the designated folder, and they shouldn't appear of the original folder anymore.
At first, I thought it was because KMail downloaded mails again because of my account configuration, so after posted this bug I checked for this matter. I tested again activating the "leave the message on the server 7 days", I downloaded the mails (KMail displayed the "deleting mails on server" status) and then try the expiry options clicking on the "Save preferences and expire now": same results, it just copy the mails and don't move anything.
Work fine here. Do you have error in console ?
(In reply to Laurent Montel from comment #2) > Work fine here. > Do you have error in console ? I get this: $ kmail --nofork libpng warning: iCCP: Not recognizing known sRGB profile that has been edited loaded the Generic plugin libpng warning: iCCP: too many profiles libpng warning: iCCP: too many profiles [almost 40 times the same libpng warning] ~StorageServiceJobConfigPrivate I think is not of much help. If there's a way to start some kind of "debug output", please tell me how.
This bug has never been confirmed for a KDE PIM version that is based on KDE Frameworks (5.x). Those versions differ significantly from the old 4.x series. Therefore, I plan to close it in around two or three months. In the meantime, it is set to WAITINGFORINFO to give reporters the oportunity to check if it is still valid. As soon as someone confirms it for a recent version (at least 5.1, ideally even more recent), I'll gladly reopen it. Please understand that we lack the manpower to triage bugs reported for versions almost two years beyond their end of life.
Just as announced in my last comment, I close this bug. If you encounter it again in a recent version (at least 5.1 aka 15.12, preferably more recent), please open a new one unless it already exists. Thank you for all your input.
