I can confirm that this bug is still present in kmail-1.10.0 on kde-4.1.0 on ubuntu-8.04.

If a dimap sync is interrupted for whatever reason, on the next sync kmail will usually try to remove those messages, which it could not retrieve earlier.
 
Furthermore, syncing a gmail account with more than a few hundred messages seems to be completely impossible at least on  a slower connection. Although that could also be a timeout issue in the gmail server end.

Please, please fix dimap so that won't eat people's e-mail under any circumstances. The current situation is simply unacceptable, especially considering how long bugs like this have been open.
