I'm using kmail / akonadi version 15.08.3-1 from archlinux. It is possible to delete a folder from 'Local folders' in kmail. But when I start kmail next time all folders are back again. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Delete a folder 2. Restart kmail Actual Results: All deleted folders are back again. Expected Results: Folders should be deleted.
This bug has never been confirmed for a Kontact version that is based on KDE Frameworks, except possibly a Technology Preview version 5.0.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 opportunity 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.
