            Bug ID: 326803
           Summary: Kontact keep downloading message bodies
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kontact
           Version: 4.11.2
          Platform: Kubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: mail
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org

We have an imap server that we use to store ALL our e-mail on our local server.
I mean 1000's of e-mail and 20GB or so of storage. 

Now, when I'm on the road or working from home I don't want to sync the whole
archive to my local machine. So, I go to the properties of the imap folder,
select the retrieve tab, then select 'download the contents of messages at
request' and then 'keep local for 5 minutes'.

After 5 minutes Kontact starts clearing my local cache. However, whenever I
start my computer again and start Kontact, these settings have returned to
default and Kontact starts downloading the whole archive again.

This is driving me nuts.

There is also an option 'use options from the above folder', but since there is
no folder above the imap folder level, I don't know how to change those
settings (to turn the default to just downloading the headers).

Reproducible: Always
