It says "Ready". I tried updating, using the "syncronize" button in 
akonadiconsole, as well as "update folder and all subfolders" from kmail GUI 
(Ctrl + F5). Still, there are 867 mails in the shadow folder, so something is 
not working.

A stay thought - could the problems with filters have to do with this? It seems 
that messages hit by the spam filter are not recreated, so I at least have spam 
filtering. But all other messages moved into some folder by a filter is 
dublicated infinitely (in the kmail message list, i don't know about the files 
themselves)
