            Bug ID: 424579
           Summary: Incorrect parsing/interpretation of a path to Local
                    Folder (creates file: in $HOME)
           Product: Akonadi
           Version: 5.13.3
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Maildir Resource
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: vomus at rambler.ru
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
After changing a path to the Local Folder a prefix 'file:' gets added to a
filepath, so a new location of Local Folder becomes
/home/serge/file:/home/serge/.local/share/akonadi_maildir_resource_0.
Restarting akonadi does not help. Moreover, it is noted that 'file:' gets
created under the directory akonadi starts from. Going to the data in the DB
shows exactly that value. One might expect that it should contain 'file://'
with two slashes instead of one. I do not know whether this happened before but
such a behaviour was noticed for 19.12.3.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start kmail
2. Copy a directory where Local Folder is located to a new location
3. Change settings for Local Folder to that new location


OBSERVED RESULT
Wrong location for Local Folder


EXPECTED RESULT
The location should correspond to the one specified in settings
