Bug ID: 375687
Summary: Kmail Not Deleting Email From Server
Product: kmail2
Version: 5.4.0
Platform: openSUSE RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kdepim-b...@kde.org
Reporter: i...@pairowoodies.com
Target Milestone: ---
I discovered the issue after an update around Christmas time or shortly
thereafter - I believe Kmail and other software was updated at that time.
Kmail and anokondi would not work - some errors about not being able to connect
to the socket file. In the OpenSuse forum, I was advised to delete the socket
file and try again.
That worked. At least it got Kmail running (not very well mind you and a major
issue has been posted in another thread).
However, what I discovered was that Kmail was not deleting emails from the
server. When I got kmail working, it was re-downloading thousands of email
messages dating back to July of 2016.
In the settings I have:
Leave fetched messages on the server
Days to leave messages on the server: 7 Days
The latest version of kmail also is not deleting messages after 7 days so it
appears to be a multi-version issue.
I am using POP, SSL/TLS, Port 995 and Plain login.
