Bug ID: 328298 Summary: Mail disappears after having been copied to a folder Classification: Unclassified Product: kmail2 Version: 4.10.5 Platform: Fedora RPMs OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: critical Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: kdepim-bugs@kde.org Reporter: har...@gmail.com Hi! I really like Kmail---it's the most powerful and configurable graphical email client for Linux that I've used. In general, it meshes really well with my work flow. Unfortunately, for the last several several days, I have had several disappearing emails. This has come to a head where I have lost at least 1 important email (and as many as 3) for several days last week. I am using Kmail 4.10.5 on Fedora 18 (kdepim-4.10.5-1.fc18.x86_64 and associated libraries---these are the latest version of kdepim for Fedora 18) to access a Microsoft Office 365 email account via IMAP. I have many folders in the mail account to keep track of various messages. After reading and responding, I usually move (via a keystroke) a message out of the Inbox to a different folder. I have never noticed a message immediately disappear, but the next day (or several hours later), I've gone to the folder to look at the message, and the message is not there. I've checked directly on the server (using Microsoft's web access), and the message is completely gone (ie, not just accidentally filed to the wrong folder). It seems that sometimes Kmail's move does not actually copy the message into the new folder before deleting the message from the Inbox. Or perhaps Kmail's view of what is in each folder does not match that of the server: perhaps Kmail thinks the message has been copied to the folder, but in reality it hasn't. Then when Kmail syncs with the folder, the message is not there and is removed from the message list. My Wifi Internet access for the past month has been somewhat unreliable. I have noticed discrepancies between Kmail's message list and the server that get corrected when the message list for the folder is updated. In one instance, the next day after copying an email to a folder, I changed to that folder, and saw my desired message in the message list. I clicked on it to read the contents, and Kmail attempted to fetch it while updating the message list. After the message list updated, the message was gone. (This makes it sound like some other email client is changing the status of messages on the email server, but I don't use any other email client. I only use the Microsoft web client to determine if a message has been deleted or not, and I don't write, move, or delete messages using that client.) My suspicion is that somehow this is related to moving messages to another folder, since I've never noticed a message being missing from the Inbox (I don't always file messages, and have several hundred in my Inbox). Thank you for any help! Stephen Reproducible: Sometimes Some other relevant bugs might be 326977 and 320621.
