I have noticed a difference in the number of emails in the inbox and the sent 
box, compared to what was copied into those paths. I was hoping the backend 
handler was going to leave the emails in tact. Seems it has a problem.  :(

There are 653 emails missing from the inbox and sent-mail box. Compared it 
with a backup, which was used to copy the mails into that path. I'm using 
$HOME/Mail , and that is where the emails are missing. I seem to remember 
posts from time to time where people had 'lost' emails in KMail.

I can easily 'fix' it by copying the missing emails into that folder again. But 
that doesn't address the source of the problem.

I don't have any filters setup, yet have noticed a task from time to time, 
something about filtering or such. Is KMail purging emails ??

Regards,

Peter
