I would *strongly* suspect the usual cause of such things - the user
did indeed do something that triggered the delete but has forgotten
doing it as they don't think it relevant.

However, the fact that kdepim just deleted stuff without so much as a
nag dialog is a bug in itself.

At least you didn't lose three years of mail like happened to me.
