Summary: "Local folders" should not be an account
Product: kmail2
Version: 4.7
Platform: Unlisted Binaries
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: config dialog
AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
ReportedBy: abrahams at acm.org
Version: 4.7 (using KDE 4.7.2)
OS: Linux
There is no reason I can see for Local Folders being listed as an account,
since it doesn't resemble any other account and isn't used for sending and
receiving. Thinking it was there in error, I deleted it and lost all my email.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Delete the "Local Folders" account
Actual Results:
All your email is lost.
Expected Results:
At a very minimum, there should be a warning that you're about to delete all
your email.
"Local Folders" should not be listed as an account. The setting for the
location of the local folders should be somewhere else.
