           Summary: kmail leaves mails on server but another version does
                    not download left messages again
           Product: kmail
           Version: 1.12.2
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: jens.uhlenbrock at gmx.de


Version:           1.12.2 (using KDE 4.3.1)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

I'm not sure whether this is a problem with kmail or with the email service
providers but I was hoping you could tell me and/or fix it.

I have two computers: my desktop and a laptop. Kmail is installed on both
machines and I want to have all the mails on both computers. So I use pop3 and
tell kmail to leave the messages on the server.

But when e.g. my laptop downloads mails from googlemail and another mail
provider and then I start my desktop, kmail won't download the message to my
desktop. But logging in to the web interface tells me that the message is still
there.

When I first installed kde on my laptop I have copied all my config files from
the desktop to it. So maybe there's some unique identification number that is
the same on both machines and that is causing the error. Is there any way to
change this?
