            Bug ID: 464614
           Summary: Kmail cannot delete mails in inbox any more given the
                    deleted mails folder contains more than a certain
                    amount of emails
    Classification: Applications
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 5.19.3
          Platform: openSUSE
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal

SUMMARY
Mails cannot be deleted any more in case the deleted email folder contains more
than about 100 mails / 1 MByte of data
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug
symbols.

I am using the following configuration:
- my mailbox is in "maildir" format (what used to work for quite a while ...
- when deleting emails those deleted mails do not end in one of the folders in
my mailbox (why?) but are "somewhere" I do not know anything about. I as well
cannot make this deleted mail folder a "regular" directory in maildir format.
- when the deleted emails "folder" (I do not think it is a real folder,
unfortunately) exceeds a certain size you cannot delete any emails any more.
One presses "delete" but the emails simply change color but stay in the inbox.
Normal activity with kmail becomes impossible.
This bug is now quite old - I had had hoped it to vanish when switching to the
latest openSUSE version, but in vain.
Let me know if you need additional information.
