Hi, (I'm following the discussions on this list for quite some time; now I have a question I could not get answered using some web search engines / bug reports... So this is my first post.)
My question comes below after some background information... In the last couple of days I worked on a newly set-up user account of a friend of mine where I added three large IMAP resources. I downloaded and copied all mails (about 35'000 mails / 7 GB) in many small groups to subfolders of Local Mail (i.e. maildir). Then I wanted to reorganize them into several newly created subfolders. Before reorganizing I checked the number of messages for each folder shown in kmail and in the subfolders of ~/.local/share/local-mail. Unfortunately I found that many mails and even some subfolders were missing; but all missing mails were in the akonadi cache (inside file_db_data). I had ~ 2 GB in local-folders and ~ 5 GB inside file_db_data! I found a way of getting them inside local-mail by copying them to a newly created temporary folder (inside local-mail), deleting the original ones and moving them back afterwards. I checked and found that all mails arrived at the right location :-) After I had finished this "spring-cleaning", I had a look into my local-mail (similar setup) and also found some mails not written to the maildir. Now my question: Is there a simple "sync option" akonadi cache => maildir, i.e. how can I make sure, that all mails which are shown in kmail (or akonadi console) are also written to my maildir (at least after some time)? Some of my mails in file_db_data are many days old. I know the settings for the cache expiry, but it seems it doesn't work 100% reliably (maybe related to crashes?). Thank you so much, best regards and Thank You for KDEPIM! Bernd PS: Running Debian Testing, KDE 4.12.4, akonadi 1.12.1 >> Visit http://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-devel#unsub to unsubscribe <<
