I have a groupwise server backend, i am using kontact for email. I am
connecting to this groupwise backend with the IMAP protocol.

IMAP is all setup with the following configuration
Server: imap.novell.com
5 minute interval checking
unchecked - Server supports Sieve
Checked - Enable disconnected mode
Checked - Enable server-side subscription - Only Subscribed to Inbox.
TLS port 143

Reproduce the problem
1) Create folder test under IMAP subscribed to folder Inbox.
2) Drag and drop test under Local Folders
You should now be experiencing the problem.

do a restart on akonadi with akonadictl restart

for the imap resource you will get these messages. or something similar.

akonadi_imap_resource_7(11243) ResourceState::mailBoxForCollection: RID
mismatch, is  "/home/cseader/.local/share/local-mail"  expected 
"imap://cseader@imap.novell.com/"

if you use akonadiconsole you will find that everything maps correctly in the
database. Its just that there is something from that drag and drop into the
other resource that has caused this problem.

To Clean this up and fix it.
1) In order to clear this problem you must delete the test folder created. So
for IMAP you will need to subscribe to it and then delete it, and then delete
it in the Local Folders, but this is not enough. Step 2
2) Open akonadiconsole
3) Click on the Agents Tab and find your IMAP resource in the list and click on
it.
4) Right click the IMAP resource. Click Clone Agent. At this point you will see
it show up in the list in kmail and it will start working again. You may also
see the folder that you created come back. So you will need to delete it from
here.
5) Go  back to akonadiconsole Agents tab and delete the IMAP resource that you
cloned from since it will no longer work. Right Click it and select Remove
Agent.
6) should be back to normal now. Just don't ever create a folder in IMAP and
try moving it to Local Folders.
