1.9.9, still there.

And its easy to "fix" this bug.

kmail keeps an INBOX file in ~/.kde/share/apps/kmail/imap/.somenumber.directory/. Deleting it will force kmail to recreate the index and redownload every header from the server.

I guess somehow the INBOX file gets corrupted (maybe because kmail crashed or wasn't closed properly e.g. because of a xserver crash)

And this corruption may be related to the imap server. Maybe the server changes something, kmail doesn't save this (because of the above mentioned crash) and the index file gets corrupted (kmail doesnt find the mail on the server anymore).
