--- Comment #5 from Rigo Wenning <rigo at w3.org> ---
did everything suggested (size indication in config, fsck and vacuum). I did
move around 1200 messages from the imap account to a local folder before doing
akonadictl fsck. I have currently 198 files in the file_db_data directory. And
I have one file in the the local maildir where there are supposed to be 1200
files for 1200 messages. So the cache here isn't a cache anymore as akonadi has
removed the files from the initial imap store (local), but has NOT written it
to the new folder. This means great risk for data loss and high potential for
bogus backups, especially if one does not only use kmail2/kontact for email. 
Funnily enough, the emails in the local folder can be accessed, but they are
nowhere in the filesystem. They are just in the database. So if the database at
some point in time, decides that the status of the local filesystem primes, it
will remove all the email it has in the database. At which point I will have
lost 1200 emails
