Meanwhile i use a local mail server (courier-imap). The culprit with kmail2 is its bebaviour when it comes to a bigger number of mails (about > 3000) in an folder. Due courier-imap does not give a UIDNEXT kmail2 re-scans the folders (nearly) forever - and i have folders containing > 50000 mails. That takes a long time. I use the same imap acount from differen machines which results in a second failure of kmail2. If mails are deleted (there seems to exist a threshold of deleted mails) - for example via webmail - kmail2 insists in getting invalid mail ids. > (Backstory, the kde team guys asked me several times if they can go ahead > with the package move from kde-base to kde-apps, I had no time for testing, > and at some point I said, just do it, noone except me will notice anyway, > and if something goes wrong I'll fix it afterwards...) Recognized the move also. Had to adapt the package.mask accordingly. kind regards Petric
