           Summary: kmail downloads emails again after moving the mail
                    folder with Disconnected IMAP.
           Product: kmail
           Version: 1.12.2
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: disconnected IMAP
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: anand.chirag at gmail.com


Version:           1.12.2 (using KDE 4.3.5) 
OS:                Linux

I followed the instructions from
http://docs.kde.org/stable/en/kdepim/kmail/faq.html#id2568470 to move the mail
folder location but Kmail started to download all the email messages again from
the start in the ~/.kde4/share/apps/kmail directory.


Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Exit KMail 
2. make a backup of ~/.kde/share/config/kmailrc
3. then open it with an editor and edit "folders=$HOME/.mail" in the
“[General]” section. 
4. mv ~/.kde4/share/apps/kmail/* ~/.mail/


Actual Results:  
Open KMail, it will start downloading all the messages again.


I was not using any local/server-side subscriptions, so that couldn't have
caused this.
