Bug#929785: kmail - deleted mails appear again
Package: kmail
Version: 4:18.08.3-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
I would like to inform you of the following behavior:
Mails, which are put into "trash" and are then deleted by "empty trash", appear after some days again in the trash folder. Among them there are mails, which are deleted several times, but appear again and again. Other older and already deleted mails suddenly appear again.
This is not also annoying, it is a security hole. Because when mails are deleted, then it often has a reason: In my case there are sometimes sensitive datas content.
This means: mails, which are deleted, shall be SURELY deleted and not appear again.
This bug exists almost from the beginning, but from time to time, from version to version,
things get worse. So I set this bugreport to "important" although "critical" would be name it better.
Personally I believe, it all started with the implementation of akonadi. Maybe kmail should change to another database...
Thank you for reading this mail - and sorry, but ignoring this bug for such a long time gets me really "not amused".
Best regards
Hans
