--- Comment #2 from Martin Steigerwald <Martin at Lichtvoll.de> ---
Rigo, as you said, Akonadi is a cache. I thought only a read cache, but on some
recent discussion on debian-kde Kevin Krammer told me it may also cache writes
for some amount of times – and it would need to in case of a IMAP resource
being unavailable due to interim network issues[1].

Could it be that the mails are in ~/.local/share/akonadi/file_db_data? –
Akonadi uses it as a temporary buffer I think also in the case of moving mails.
So it may be the mails are there and Akonadi will eventually move them to the
final destination after some time. So if KMail and Akonadiconsole still see the
mails I bet they are still there on disk. Just not where you expect them to be.

And yes, I find this behavior highly confusing expecially as I have seen that
Akonadi cached mails in there for long amounts of time. I´d expect it to behave
more like a filesystem write journal, i.e. flush to destination storage as soon
as possible.
