[Bug 205045] New: Kontact/Kmail repeatedly deletes/refills IMAP inbox contents
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=205045 Summary: Kontact/Kmail repeatedly deletes/refills IMAP inbox contents Product: SUSE Linux 10.1 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: SuSE Linux 10.1 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: david.wright@wright-is.com QAContact: kde-maintainers@suse.de I updated to KDE 3.5.4 level a from the build service and have been using it for the couple of months without any problems. About 2 weeks ago there was a build that caused Kontact to crash a couple of times a day, no biggy, I assumed it would get fixed with the next update. But the next update (end of August) brought a new problem. When Kontact is open, it cycles through the imap inbox and deletes every mail (read or unread). When the inbox is empty, it re-instates all of the mails and then prompty starts to delete them all again. This carries on until I exit Kontact. I am using Cyrus IMAP as the back end IMAP server, and I have been using this combination for about 18 months without any problems. The deleting of emails takes a long time. It takes anything up to 5 seconds per email for it to be removed. With 20 emails in the inbox, it cycles through them n around 1 minute. I removed all of my filters (to move mailing list entries to the correct sub-folders) and this still continued. I just had a brainwave and deleted the anti-spam rules (SpamAssassin) and it seems to have stopped doing it for now... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=205045 ------- Comment #2 from wstephenson@novell.com 2006-09-12 08:08 MST ------- Sounds like the anti-spam rules were filtering all messages, not just new ones, probably caused by a mail filter loop. David, can you post some steps to reproduce this? The connected-imap filtering in KDE 3 has awful performance in KDE 3 and we can't change it until KDE 4, so if it turns out that David had a mail filter loop and a performance problem, I would recommend filtering on the server if possible. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=205045 ------- Comment #3 from david.wright@wright-is.com 2006-09-12 08:50 MST ------- Hmm, well, Spam Assassin and Kontact were working fine until recently. Then about a week, week and a half ago, I downloaded the latest updates from the KDE Build Service repo. Next time I logged in this loop started. All that is needed is to have Kontact connected to the IMAP server, it starts automatically, as soon as Kontact has initialised. I switched to using Evolution in the meantime, but, although it has improved lately, I still prefer Kontact, so looked at fixing it. I removed the filters, which conincided with an update to Kontact this morning, and it is working fine now. To reproduce, I can only suggest using the Kontact build from last week and running with the Spam Assassin deamon and Cyrus IMAP, I didn't do anything else to the configuration. I've re-inserted my personal filters for moving mails around and it is working fine now, but I haven't re-instated Spam Assassin yet. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

It seems to be working okay after the upgrade to 10.2, but I managed to kill my server the other day (blown motherboard/CPU), so I can't test further currently... :-( -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
