I recently forced a resync of my imap cache, which made a problem appear:
Upon startup, and when pressing OK or Accept in the configuration dialogue, 
KMail presents me 10 windows with following content:
"Error when opening /home/$USER/.kde4/share/apps/kmail/dimap/1668694697. This 
folder does not exist." [Translated]

A console log and a backtrace of that state is attached.

Examining the apps/kmail/dimap folder showed several .NUMBER.directory folders 
with no accompanying NUMBER folder.
Appart from several .SOMETHING.uidcache files, they contain only some 
.SOMETHING.directory folders:
.kde4/share/apps/kmail/dimap/.130708501.directory
.kde4/share/apps/kmail/dimap/.130708501.directory/.INBOX.directory
.kde4/share/apps/kmail/dimap/.1402182378.directory
.kde4/share/apps/kmail/dimap/.1402182378.directory/.somenamespace.directory
.kde4/share/apps/kmail/dimap/.1587347013.directory
.kde4/share/apps/kmail/dimap/.1668694697.directory
.kde4/share/apps/kmail/dimap/.1785330918.directory
.kde4/share/apps/kmail/dimap/.1785330918.directory/.somefolder.directory
.kde4/share/apps/kmail/dimap/.1991805192.directory
.kde4/share/apps/kmail/dimap/.1991805192.directory/.INBOX.directory

My theory is that I am seeing three different issues:
1) When deleting some IMAP accounts KMail "forgot" to delete all folders.
2) When resyncing imap caches, instead of ignoring or deleting the stale 
folders, KMail started messing with them, probably trying to recreate the uid 
caches.
3) The error handling during recreation of the uid caches is not verbose enough 
and displays just a default and uninformative error message.

This bug shows similarities with problem 1 in bug #209208.

I deleted the stale folders inside the dimap dir I mentioned above. The
error messages are now gone.

P.S: I recognize these folders (somenamespace and somefolder) as parts
of imap accounts I had setup earlier.

Problem 1 in bug #209208 is yours. As this report is much more clean
about this I mark 209208 as a duplicate.

My statement "KMail presents me 10 windows with following content" above
is inaccurate. Of course the actual folder varies, and the 10 windows
each mention a different of the 10 folders.

Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report.

KMail2 was released in 2011, and the entire code base went through
significant changes. We are currently in the process of porting to Qt5
and KF5. It is unlikely that these bugs are still valid in KMail2.

We welcome you to try out KMail 2 with the KDE 4.14 release and give
your feedback.
