Bug#828846: kmail: After upgrading kmail this morning it looked empty. All mail folders removed from mailserver
Package: kmail
Version: 4:4.14.10-2
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
I've done an aptitude upgrade this morning which meant I received the newest kmail.
I don't think there was an akonodi upgrade in there.
Afterwards I started kontact and in my kmail view I no longer saw my imap /
kolab folders.
My todos was also empty and my calendar from caldav (owncloud) was not
showing in the calendar app.
Some time later I rebooted my laptop and logged back in.
I noticed that still everything was missing, but the account was still
present in the overview of kmail configure screen.
Just now I logged into mykolab.com via webmail only to find out that
everything except my inbox is gone. All folders have been removed.
I can only blame this on kontact/kmail somehow. Although I don't know
what happened.
I hope this report can somehow avoid others losing all the emails too.
