I'm suffering from one (I'm not sure which) of the many bugs in KMail2 that results in new messages getting duplicated en masse. To remove these, I use the "Remove Duplicate Messages" command from the "Folder" menu. While this command does seem to work, it has a number of undesirable side-effects. Here is what happens when I run the command: 1. A progress bar–like throbber appears in the status bar. 2. After several seconds (or minutes, for particularly large folders), a completely blank message dialog appears. It has a big red icon on it so I assume it's a serious error (though maybe it's just supposed to be telling me how many duplicates have been removed?). See attached screenshot. 3. After pressing OK on the error dialog, I am returned to the main KMail window. 4. Nothing happens for about five seconds. Then, the throbber finally stops and the duplicated messages disappear from the message list. Reproducible: Always
Created attachment 101394 [details] Blank error dialog thrown by "Remove Duplicate Messages"
Some further information, in case it's useful: The folders I am deduping are local maildir folders. When the error dialog appears, the message "Item query returned empty result set" is spammed to the console.
