--- Comment #6 from francesco <francesco at href.org> ---
I have been experiencing the same problem (with kmail2, version 4.8.5), and
after reading this
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.devel.pim/33336
I checked the courierimapsubscribed file on my server (where I run
courier-imap).
The INBOX folder was not present, while all the other were as expected
(INBOX.Sent and so on...)
It looks like Kmail1, Thunderbird and my webmail client (Roundcube) just assume
that the INBOX folder is subscribed to and show all its email messages.
However, it seems that kmail2 does not subscribe to the folder and does not
even give you the option to subscribe to it. Checking and unchecking it does
not make any difference.

So what I did was to add it manually in my courierimapsubscribed file.
Then, after refreshing the folder list, kmail2 has been working fine, showing
all the messages in my inbox.

Hope it helps. Obviously, this is only possible if you have access to the
server hosting your mail.
