I have an imap-account setup. Now I want to change the servername to
"localhost".

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Setup an imap-account and let it fetch all messages
2. Relocate the server to some other host-name
3. Correct the server-name in the imap-account and press ok
Actual Results:  
The local emails are removed/purged and all mails are fetched all over again.
Folder-settings like Trash, Drafts etc. are also forgot.

Expected Results:  
Noting should happend. Kmail should correct to the new server as if nothing has
happenend and continue operation using that server instead.
