           Summary: KMail is very slow and very unreliable :-(
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 2.1.0
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: salem at saberhagen.de


Version:           2.1.0 (using KDE 4.6.4) 
OS:                Linux

The new KMail2 is still very slow and very very very unreliable on my system. I
need to restart Akonadi 12-14 times a day, because KMail don't want to update
folders and i get random errors for different folders.

Example:
- I want to sent a mail, Kmail says: "Local Folders: Error: Unsupported Type".
After a akonadi-restart, the message is sent and i see the message "E-Mail
successfully sent"

- The view of a new folder with >1000 mails needs 10-20 seconds. Sometimes
KMail don't show new mails. Some folders are empty. Opening a mail (Retrieving
Folder Contents) needs 4-6 seconds. 

- KMails needs ~1 minute until all IMAP resources (9) are loaded

- KMail crashes sometimes when using the left Folder search, error:
Application: KMail (kmail), signal: Segmentation fault [Current thread is 1
(Thread 0x7f59cc5f2760 (LWP 21483))]

At the moment i'm searching for a way to downgrade to the old KMail 1.x. It was
very fast and stable and i loved it. But KMail 2 is the slowest mail client i
know with more bugs than Outlook Express :-(
