--- Comment #3 from Fred Jackson <fredrick.o.jack...@gmail.com> --- How odd: in comment#2, pedro is unable to find a newly created folder or it's content, but on my machine, it is the default folders which cannot be found on disk. I have created a filter COPIES any new emails to a folder I created and then actually deletes the original. This was the only way I could force kmail to put new emails on disk. I had to copy all of my OLD content to newly created folders in order to force kmail to store my email archive on disk so I can back it up in a format I understand and can manipulate to my satisfaction. Note to core developers: I'm guessing your intent was to migrate kmail's storage scheme from the traditional Maildir format to the new nepomuk/akonadi database format. in my humble opinion, this is a step in the wrong direction for more than one reason: 1) corruption of a single bit in the database file would destroy the entire email store. 2) the new format is not compatible with anything else, and as far as I have been able to discover has no tools with which I can create ANY backup whatsoever of the email archive. If i can't store my emails on disk (maildir) and cannot backup my archive with a cron script and I cannot even export my archive to a format usable by other email programs..............? I'm terrified that my next kmail issue will be the end of my email archive which, believe it or not, contains over seven years of email. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Kdepim-bugs mailing list Kdepim-bugs@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kdepim-bugs
