           Summary: KMail often re-downloads the contents of the entire
                    mail server
           Product: kmail2
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: kde at privat.broulik.de


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.7.3) 
OS:                Linux

I have several POP3 accounts in my KMail2 and those are set to Keep E-Mails on
the server because I also want to receive my mail from the smartphone, pc etc
(dunno if Hotmail supports IMAP though).
At some random time, I could not yet reproduce it, I get a messages by Akonadi
saying "Local Folder: Message "$someid.R437.kaiuwe-tragbar" could not be
moved." (I have automatic filtering enabled) and if such a message appeared,
the trouble begins; with no way of solving it except of patiently waiting (> 50
MB and I only got a surfstick with limited quota!) and afterwards deleting all
the "unread e-mails" (and since there is also no way of only searching for
Unread Mails that have been sent yesterday or earlier, this is quite a pain …)

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
I have absolutely no idea to reliably reproduce this. But the option to leave
the Mails on the server is crucial.


Expected Results:  
It just downloads the mails once and that’s it!
