            Bug ID: 326977
           Summary: many related problems with folders
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.10.5
          Platform: Kubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: critical
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: dav1dblunk3tt at hotmail.com

I have many related problems with folders - I cannot work out where the problem
lies but here are the symptoms:

Messages are sent ok but remain in outbox (marked unread) they are also copied
to sent-mail and appear in the index of sent-mail but the content is missing
(although I can read them in outbox).

My chosen spam destination is "local folders/spam" but every time kmail starts
this is deleted and "local folders/wastebin/spam" is created and all the spam
filters are broken.  Sometimes when I move it back to "local folders" it is
sorted to the correct place in the list other times it sticks around the first
few special folders (somewhere between inbox and templates).  Lots of times
spam is filtered to my spam filter and deleted from the inbox - however if I
select a different folder and then go back to the inbox the spam email
reappears for a moment before getting filtered again - I get new mail
notifications and multiple copies in my spam folder.  This continues
indefinitely until I delete the spam.

On restarting some emails are lost in through these problems!

As a for instance - the spam filters id'd something as spam yesterday - it was
filtered and kept reappearing - eventually I had 15 copies in spam and one
(transient) in inbox which I deleted because I was sick of the continual
notifications of new mail.  I still had 15 copies in spam.  Today I started
kmail, the spam folder was relocated, the filters were all unconfigured and the
spam was missing from all folders - data lost.

Sometimes when I delete emails they reappear (this is an occasional problem).

I am using a pop via gmail to get messages and the messages are not left on the
server.

I have the following messages at stderr:

 kmail2(13722)/kdepimlibs (mailtransport)
MailTransport::Transport::usrReadConfig: Akonadi transport with invalid
resource instance.
kmail2(13722)/kdepimlibs (mailtransport)
MailTransport::Transport::usrReadConfig: Type unknown to manager.
lots of the next one
kmail2(13722)/kdepimlibs (mailtransport)
MailTransport::SendQueuedAction::itemAccepted: Item doesn't have
DispatchModeAttribute.
kmail2(13722)/kdepimlibs (mailtransport)
MailTransport::Transport::transportType: Invalid transport type.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
fire up kmail and it is as described
Actual Results:  
all sorts of odd folder behaviour as described

Expected Results:  
the spam folder should stay put

spam filtering should work

the outbox->sentmail should work (ie once sent messages should move the
sentmail and leave outbox).

I shouldn't lose messages

Messages I delete should stay deleted
