I'm accessing my Domino mailbox from KMail. The folders I created in Domino appear in KMail, which is Ok.

I had created a folder called "Backup" in my Domino mailbox to store backup notifications from my backup server. When I ran KMail the first time I didn't realize it used the "Backup" folder to store a backup of my Inbox. Moreover the mails in folder "Backup" are not listed in KMail.

So I renamed my folder "Backup" in Lotus Domino and deleted the "Backup" folder from KMail. When I restarted KMail I noticed 4 strange things:

1. Folder "Backup" is back again
2. It still contains a backup of my Inbox
3. The renamed folder appears too but also as another copy of my Inbox!
4. If I delete the mails from the renamed folder, all mails from my Inbox go away!

I still cannot get the backup notification emails as they don't appear in their folder -- the one I renamed as mentioned earlier.

So I ended up with 3 copies of my Inbox folder: the original Inbox, one in KMail's Backup folder and the last one in the folder I renamed earlier. All three are not in sync.
