[Kde-pim] KMail DIMAP Cache Migration Fallback

Hi all,

while pondering about useful behavior in cases of migration failure, I thought 
about this one:

The DIMAP cache is, from the data point of view, just like the KMail mail 
directory, i.e. a maildir tree plus index files.

In the unfortunate event of failing to import the cache, we could fall back to 
create a local resource for the respective account's cache.

Or  we could create a local resource for all caches, which would as a side 
effect allow users to delete the cached mails directly from their mail 
applications.

What do you think?

Cheers,
Kevin
