            Bug ID: 310899
          Severity: critical
           Version: 4.9.3
          Priority: NOR
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
           Summary: Resource KMail Folders is broken.  This resource is
                    now online
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: hispeed.bz at gmail.com
          Hardware: Other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
         Component: general
           Product: kmail2

During normal use of kmail I get a notification "Resouce KMail Folders is
broken.  This resource is now online."

My upgrade from kmail to kmail2 has been an embarrassing nightmare but I would
*really* like to try and help fix it instead of just giving up like others seem
to be doing.

Can you please help me troubleshoot this?  My kmail2 installation is a mix of
maildir folders and mbox files.  I created a new 'Inbox" as a maildir and use
that for the delivery of new messages now.  I keep that folder as small as
possible and move messages into my real inbox every day or two.  When I click
on other folders (mbox or maildirs) the "... is broken..." message appears
regularly and the software hangs.  Sometimes it comes back, sometimes I have to
kquitapp, sometimes I have to kill -KILL, and sometimes I just reboot.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open kmail or kontact
2. Use normally - send messages, read messages, open other folders to read
previous messages, etc.

Actual Results:  
Notification that Resource KMail Folders is broken, frequent hangs, message
bodies not showing up.

Expected Results:  
Would like to get this working as well as the previous version (kmail1?) which
worked very well and was reliable.

Any troubleshooting tips would be greatly appreciated.

I've deleted the nepomuk and akonadi directories a few dozen times, tried the
kmail->kmail2 migration 5-10 times, ran akonadictl fsck and akonadictl vacuum
probably 30-40 times.  All over the past month.

My kmail directory (~/Mail) is a mix of Maildir and MBox folders but mostly
MBox folders from the previous version of KMail.  Folders range in size from 50
messages up to about 20000 messages.
