SUMMARY A few days ago I noticed that the local sent-mail folder was empty, except for one message from 3 weeks ago. There should have been a lot of older and a few newer mails as well. I made a test by sending a mail to myself. Result: Mail arrives, but is not in sent-mail. Yesterday I looked closer at the configuration and noticed that almost every sent-mail folder for every identidy was marked red. I reconfigured them all to the same path that was displayed (which should have been correct). KMail seemed to work fine then (for receiving/reading mail - haven't tried sending)... Since rebooting, every time I try to start kmail, I get the following error message: "The Email program encountered a fatal error and will terminate now. The error was: Could not create collection sent-mail, resourceId 4" Then it terminates... (not a crash). STEPS TO REPRODUCE see above. I have no idea what the cause is.

Edit/Additional info: "almost every sent-mail folder" --> What I meant is: the drafts and templates folders were shown red, too. When browsing the local folders in akonadi console, the tree-view on the left tells me that there is 1 mail in outbox and 2 in sent-mail. When clicking on them however, the list on the right remains empty. (It works as expected for my non-local inboxes)
This is from memory, maybe 6 weeks ago, but I think this is what I did as a workaround (or at least something similiar): I noticed that in ~/.local/share there were 2 directories: akonadi_maildir_resource_0 akonadi_maildir_resource so I did: $ akonadictl stop $ mv akonadi_maildir_resource_0 ~/Desktop $ mv akonadi_maildir_resource akonadi_maildir_resource_0 $ akonadictl start After this was working again (until now)
