Bug ID: 363539 Summary: kmail sometimes does not store/update on IMAP server Product: kmail2 Version: 4.14.10 Platform: Other OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: kdepim-b...@kde.org Reporter: kdeb...@equaeghe.nospammail.net Sometimes, kmail does not store or update messages on the IMAP server. Namely, often when I compose and submit a message, it is saved to sent-mail folder in the local akonadi database, but does not actually appear on the server (verified using other clients such as webmail). In the akonadi database, the message then has no ‘Remote ID’ (which I guess corresponds with its IMAP UID). The workaround I use is to move it to another account and back. Also, flag updates such as marking \SEEN is not propagated to the server. The workaround I use is to unmark \SEEN and mark \SEEN again. This does not happen with all accounts, but specifically with accounts on a Dovecot server. So it may be a server bug (unlikely, as other clients do not have this problem) or a bug triggered in the interaction with this server's specific set of capabilities: IMAP4REV1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE SORT SORT=DISPLAY THREAD=REFERENCES THREAD=REFS MULTIAPPEND UNSELECT CHILDREN NAMESPACE UIDPLUS LIST-EXTENDED I18NLEVEL=1 CONDSTORE QRESYNC ESEARCH ESORT SEARCHRES WITHIN CONTEXT=SEARCH LIST-STATUS SPECIAL-USE QUOTA In any case, whatever the reason, for the case that the message is not actually submitted to the server, kmail (or the responsible backend) has enough information to just resubmit, because it needs to fill in the ‘Remote ID’/IMAP UID. For the flag change, modseqs could be used to check. Reproducible: Always -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
