            Bug ID: 324173
           Summary: mails from mbox resource often display correctly only
                    after compaction
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.11
          Platform: unspecified
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: kollix at aon.at

I have an mbox resource where an external program adds emails to the mbox file
(via a cron job).
In addition I have lots of filters setup, mainly to redirect messages from
mailing lists into different folders.
Very often kmail displays some mails in that mbox resource with "(No Subject)",
"Unknown" sender, "Unknown" Date but with a sensible Size (e.g. currently I see
only one mail there which shows 5,3 KiB)

This status does never change - except I open the accounts configuration,
Modify the mbox resource and click "Compact Now" (where I have set "Never
compact automatically").
E.g. now it shows "7 messages marked for deletion".

When I click "Compact now" then suddenly I see the correct Subject in the mail
and then the filters trigger and the mail is moved correctly into the target
folder.


Reproducible: Sometimes
