Hi all,

I don't have technical background so please excuse me if I cannot express
myself eloquently. A few days ago, I ran out of space in my /home directory and
discovered that the ~/.local/share/akonadi/file_db_data directory contains
422,359 files, which totals to 75 GiB. I ran akonadictl fsck, which found
several duplicates but didn't change the size of this directory significantly.
I have 7 offline IMAP accounts, and I rarely receive emails that contain
attachments >= 5MB. I compressed and moved the directory to another HDD, and
akonadi recreated it during the next launch, immediately populating it with 2.7
GiB data. That is when I decided to convert all my offline IMAP accounts to
online ones, and erased the folder again. Since then 92.3 MB data in 15,310
files accumulated in that directory. Of note, I haven't modified the original
size threshold  of 4KB. I hope this information helps to this discussion.

Thanks,

Hakan
