 Personally, I'd be disappointed if this was done.  I know the bug is
 present, but I rely on KMail's dimap support for my mail.  I switched
 from Thunderbird because of Thunderbird's lousy, buggy dimap support.
  KMail's is superb, other than this bug (which hasn't hit me yet).

this is not acceptable for our users. I'm in favor of disabling dimap 
until that bug really disappears as well.

Bug#321102: data-loss still possible with kmail 3.5.2

2006-05-16 Thread Bastian Venthur
So here it is, someone confirmed this bug with 3.5.2 on Debian:

http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=104956

Quote:

Bam! I had this bug right now. Using KDE 3.5.2 on Debian. Lost a whole
folder of mails (thank god it was only a ML). Nevertheless this is
totally uncool...


Whoever marked this bug as found in $VERSION should upgrade this to
the newest version too or remove it completely (we know this bug is open
for years and there is IMHO reason to track every version-number the bug
appeared).

And please consider to remove KMail from testing again. There is nothing
stable about losing a whole Mail-Folder. Especially when we *know* the
software leads to data loss but pretend it to be stable.


Best regards,

Bastian

Darn, I thought that perhaps it had gone away.

 the newest version too or remove it completely (we know this bug is
 open for years and there is IMHO reason to track every version-number

I have added the founds for this version for the sake of clarity, but 
it isn't necessary to mark founds for every last upload; the bug is 
assumed to be present by the BTS unless marked fixed.

 And please consider to remove KMail from testing again. There is
 nothing stable about losing a whole Mail-Folder. Especially when we
 *know* the software leads to data loss but pretend it to be stable.

Perhaps a better solution would be disable dimap support in the 3.5.3 
upload, and make sure that the fixed package makes Etch (which is 
looming). Daniel, what do you feel about this? Given that upstream 
appears to be unable to replicate and fix the problem, I think this 
might be the safest, and least bothersome (to all other KMail users) 
way of dealing with this issue.

By the way, you referred to the fixed package.  As far as I'm aware, this 
bug isn't about to be fixed.  A comment was made on the KDE Bugzilla that 
really fixing it would require a restructuring of the IMAP backend/kioslave.  
Did I miss something?  I sure hope so, cause I'd love for this bug to be 
truly fixed.
