           Summary: local unsubscribe info is not persisted quickly enough
           Product: kmail
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs kde org
        ReportedBy: zander kde org


Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

In kmail trunk I locally unsubscribed to various mail folders and then continued to work with kontact.  After a couple of minutes I managed to crash Kontact and subsequently restarted it.

Some time later my dimap folder hit its auto-sync timeout and started syncing.  From the fallout I gather the following happened;
the syncing software noticed the missing folders but did not notice that I had enabled local-subscriptions and marked those as unsubscribed.  The effect is that the folder was created locally and the folder content was removed remotely.
Effectively loosing all my mail.

Configuration options like subscriptions should be persisted immediately IMO.  Also the kde3 kind of sanity detection that would have cough this seems to have been lost on porting.
