A general comment: as a software architect unfamiliar with KMail/Akonadi inner
workings, I must say am shocked that Akonadi protocol is designed to be so
brittle: that such a small bug in Job implementation can stall the whole
communication with an Akonadi resource.

As I understand, stalling communication is much worse than crashing, as it
pushes Akonadi and its resource more and more out of sync and can perhaps
result in data loss. As I understand, I received a bunch of mails via POP3 in
KMail, read them, moved between folders etc, with "KMail Folders" resource
totally out the loop for several hours.
