           Summary: After upgrade, unhelpful IMAP error messages are
                    unhelpful notifications
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 2.0.95
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: kde-bugger at msquadrat.de


Version:           2.0.95 (using KDE 4.6.2) 
OS:                Linux

I just upgraded to KMail 4.6-beta5, via the Kubuntu (natty) experimental PPA
(KDE 4.6.3, Akonadi 1.5.2).

After an otherwise uneventful migration, I was spammed by the Notification area
with messages like "Remote Folders: Select failed, server replied: A000047 NO
Invalid mailbox name".  After KMail started successfully, these appear
regularly.

"Remote Folders" is the name of my IMAP account, the Annnnnn are probably the
IMAP sequence numbers from my Dovecot server.  Still, I have no idea what is
wrong here or even which folder is acting weird.  Also, I have idea on how to
fix this.  That will be true for the average user, too, so unless the errors
are significant (looks like everything works up to now), KMail should not spam
me with errors I can't fix anyway.

After a while the error "Remote Folders: Unknown error. (Could not create
collection)" popped up as well.

The server is dovecot 1.1.11-0ubuntu11.

Reproducible: Didn't try
