--- Comment #3 from Y <kde08 at sfina.com> ---
I am not familiar with the code, so mine are all speculations.  The behaviour
described in bug 290363 looks similar.  I am not sure it is a duplicate: the
author of 290363 write that he can't reproduce consistently.  I can reproduce
consistently by turning temporarily off the IMAP service.

I also do not understand the lack of reply to the reports.  To me it seems that
Kmail/2 is abandoned/unmaintained.  While I understand that open source
software development has its pace and that we users must adapt to it, I do not
understand how a "mature" community such as KDE makes such misguided decisions
like replacing well working and tested software (Kmail/1) with unfinished
prototypes (Kmail/2). That replacement has come too early and has done no
favour to anybody.  In my view, KDE's reputation has taken a serious hit and I
am now looking to switch to another desktop environment all together.
