I see you use apple mail, are you on a Mac?

I first chose overwrite and then restart, but then I cancelled and then a lot of files (I guess those after the conflicting numbers) disappeared and I don’t find them now (nor in the Trash folder).

I'm not a Mac user, but a linux one and it should be similar. Digikam 
use the underlying system, albums are only system folders. So the local 
explorer (not digikam) may show something (logs?).

renaming is usually done like moving, it may be to a hidden file 
(.something in linux) or even an nother folder

hope you the best :-(
