Bug#300614: kmail: deletes emails when manually applying a filter for all messages in inbox manually
Package: kmail
Version: 4:3.3.2-2
Severity: critical
Justification: causes serious data loss
After definig a new filter, I pressed CTRL+A to mark all messages in Inbox,
then I pressed CTRL+J to apply a filter manually.
After that the Kmail window got white, nothing was going anymore. The
programm had kinda overflow. I rebooted because I wasn't able to do a
killall kmail.
When opening Kmail again all messages in inbox got marked as From "unknow"
and Subject "unknow". Some messages were still had the right subject and
sender but when I wanted to read them they got the invailid marker as well =
I lost all mails in inbox - even those which contained some important data!
Kmail had often shown this behavior after pressding ^C+A and then ^C+J. but
this was the first time it deleted data.
