isn't it great? back in the days when kmail stored emails in files, everything worked great and even folders with 100k mails were not a problem. But, no, they had to break that. I lost ca 500k emails thanks to akonadi-crap and errors like that. I really loved kmail and thunderbird is garbage compared - but akonadi took away that choice. Thank you, kdepim-devs for making the dumbest decision ever! *thumbsup*
