           Summary: KMail deletes mails in my Sent folder when changing it
                    in identity preferences
           Product: kontact
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: mail
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: stephan.diestelhorst at gmail.com


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.7.0) 
OS:                Linux

My "Sent Items" folder on an IMAP share had been deleted, after I changed to it
in my account preferences as the folder where sent mail should be saved. This
cost me emails of several years to be gone :-/

This is KMail2 on Kubuntu 11.04, from kubuntu-experimental PPA.

Reproducible: Couldn't Reproduce

Steps to Reproduce:
Tried to reproduce with a different folder, but didn't work (yet).

Actual Results:  
The entire folder "Sent Items" was empty except for the emails sent on that
particular date.

Expected Results:  
The old sent messages should have stayed in there.

This is a IMAP on an Exchange server.
