Thanks Andras, Timing :)

I actually resolved the problem last night - unsubscribed the folder in 
*Serverside* subscriptions. This removed it from the akonadi db and when I 
resubscribed the folder resynced from scratch. This time it downloaded all the 
message and then resumed a normal sync patter with minimal bandwidth usage.

Couple of notes:
When it was stuck, it was stuc at around 5500 messages. new message where 
being synced but there was some 3000 old messages that never arrived.

Now that I have reset it I'm back to around 8500 msgs in the folder.


I am running Kubuntu 13.10 alpha, so packages get updated a lot. I wouldn't 
surprised if I got temporarily reset to the akonadi 4.10.5 packages before I 
reinstalled from master. Maybe that could have caused DB corruption?


Quirk: When unsubscribing from folders via the serverside dlg you have to 
restart kontact before the change is noted.


thanks,
