I thought I was doing something wrong, but apparently I don't. :(
I'm using a newly installed (about a week ago) Kubuntu 16.04 with 
ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports.

I observe(d):
* zero results when I did a search
* auto-completion of email addresses not working

Very disappointing.

Local subscription of IMAP folders also appears to be completely broken, 
i.e. unsubscribing some folders has no effect, they are still shown.
