Changing the server really should remove all downloaded messages because the server IDs the app has stored for those messages no longer correspond to messages on the server. But we currently don't do that.
Due to this bug it would appear to work at first. When your new server is using the same IDs, K-9 Mail will think it has already downloaded the message and won't download it again (but really it's a different message). And because IMAP is using numeric and increasing IDs it's very likely such a conflict will happen. > 2.

Something like that is currently not supported in the app. But someone wrote a script to extract messages from K-9 Mail's database. You could try to get it working again (the database schema probably changed a bit since then). https://groups.google.com/d/msg/k-9-mail/xjNz0PXZfD8/k4DFkxbrCgAJ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "K-9 Mail" group.
