Replying to myself again.

*sigh* I found a possible data loss issue:

[Akonadi] [Bug 318290] New: Empty mails: AkonadiAgentServer(4890)/libakonadi 
Akonadi::ResourceBase::itemRetrieved: Item does not provide part 
"HEAD"/"RFC822"

http://bugs.kde.org/318290

And thing is: I cannot even tell for sure whether its a data loss issue or 
Akonadi being confused. And I have absolutely no idea how it happened.


Before doing anything else, I am now snapshotting my maildir directories 
again and create a complete backup after having migrated to KDEPIM-2 backup.


I think KDEPIM-2 as of KDE SC 4.10.2 still needs serious performance / 
responsiveness and more importantly correctness / robustness work. Its 
personal data it stores. I wouldn´t accept such a thing with a filesystem I 
trust to hold my data.

Ciao,
