[Kde-pim] Akonadi keeps re-downloading gigabytes of mail, and other problems

[Daniel Vrátil]

Hi,

any chance you are talking to a Courier IMAP server? We had some issues with 
Courier IMAP that often caused full resync, but that should be now fixed in 
16.04.

Could you run Akonadi from terminal (just open Konsole or something, and run
"akonadictl restart") and see if there's any output that might indicate why 
the IMAP resource decides to resync or is stuck, or just provide the full log 
up to the point when it breaks?

Cheers,
Dan
