Package: kmail
Version: 4:3.5.9-5
Severity: grave
Justification: causes non-serious data loss
Identical to bug 158978 in Launchpad, see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/kdepim/+bug/158978 for additional information and
reports from
other users. The bug was also reported to affect Kmail 1.12.1 in KDE4.3.1!!
I'm using dIMAP for a Gmail account. On first connect in the morning I got a
cryptic message complaining about non-readable contents on
the IMAP server. All folders but my inbox were synchronized and the inbox was
displayed as empty. Irritated by this I pressed the
button a second time and the inbox was readable this time, but kmail instantly
deleted all mails on the server (as it notified in the
status bar) and then just downloaded the new stuff that had come in since I had
left work the previous evening. It basically deleted
several hundred messages in a few seconds. None of the subfolders were
affected, though this has happened previously on my private
account using another machine (only a subset of the inbox contents was deleted
then, same Kmail version and setup).
It seems like the server error caused Kmail to update the local cache (deleting
messages that were there previously) - which it should
not do if there's been only a transmission error and no real modification on
the server side. Then upon the next synchronisation it
updates the server by actually deleting all remote messages as well.
Update 12/2009: This has happened twice in the meantime. Luckily I can access a
second mirror of the IMAP so the deleted messages could
be recovered, but others might not be that lucky.
