           Summary: KMail2 is unusable for many hours after migration from
                    kmail 1 using Local Folders
           Product: kmail
           Version: SVN trunk (KDE 4)
          Platform: Mandriva RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: shlomif at iglu.org.il


Version:           SVN trunk (KDE 4) (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

After I fixed bug #250747 - https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=250747 , with
a lot of help form piggz on IRC, and set up the local folders, then KMail is
spending many hours "syncing collections" of the different folders, several
times for each folder (why?). Furthermore, it marks all the messages in all the
folders as unread, despite the fact they had read flags in their headers set by
KMail 1. I don't understand what this "syncing" means, but I know that it
communicates with the Akonadi PostgreSQL backend and slowly fills up my
/-partition.

I still cannot properly use KMail despite having quit it and started it again.
Why can't the KDE 4 people stop messing things up?

Reproducible: Didn't try
