--- Comment #7 from Steven Robbins <steve at sumost.ca> ---
Bug remains in KMail Version 5.22.3 (22.12.3).

I have been using kmail for years with a local imap server. The local mailbox
is fed using fetchmail to retrieve mail from my ISP’s imap server. Works a
treat.

Recently I decided to directly add my upstream isp imap server as a second
mailbox. Now I can look at emails on the upstream server directly. And there is
a “Unified Mailboxes” pseudo-server that presents an aggregated view of both
imap servers. The issue is that of course fetchmail is still periodically
moving messages from upstream imap to local. And the unified mailboxes gets
very confused.

When a message gets moved (removed from upstream imap and added to local imap),
I end up with two duplicate entries in “unified mailboxes” and I can’t interact
properly with them. Often I can’t delete one or both copies, for example. I end
up re-starting kmail a couple times a day to clear things up.
