[Kde-pim] Newbie questions about Akonadi/KDEPIM codebase

[Yury G. Kudryashov]

Hi!

I'd like to fix some bugs in Akonadi/KMail2, but I'm completely unfamilair 
with Akonadi codebase. So, could you answer some questions, please?

First of all, the bug I'd like to fix are:

1. https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=305987
"Could not create collection" when adding new top-level mailbox for IMAP 
account

2. (not found, will report). I have a 'Folder.Subfolder' on server, but have 
no 'Folder'. I have found no way to create 'Folder' without recreating the 
IMAP resource.

Next, my questions.
Q1. AFAICS, Akonadi::Collection is defined in kdepimlibs, but it is used in 
akonadi. Am I wrong? How does it work?

Q2. How should parts of KDE-PIM (resource, server, kmail) operate while 
creating a folder? Which signals are sent/slots are called?

Q3. WRT bug#305987, the newly created collection is shown in akonadi-console 
but is not visible in kmail. How is it possible? Where can I find the 
relevant information?

P.S.: Sorry if teaching me is harder than fixing the bugs yourself ;)
