HI
Upgraded this morning and it didn;t work until the fixed kdepim runtime was installed and the i used it quite happily. I then logged out and did some other work on another login and logged out. I returned to this login and the thing went crazy and started duplicating thousands of emails and leaving them marked as unread. Using the "remove duplicates" menu option does not seem to make any difference to the number of emails duplicated. I've also tried the akonadictl fsck/vacuum and that hasn't made any difference to the "remove duplicates" functions. I'll keep trying to see if the remove dups starts working.
As far as I can remember this problem on an IMAP account, I got rid of it after changing some weird combination of default folders and filter settings introduced after migrating from an older KMail version causing a circular filtering from Inbox back to Inbox. Therefore, the problem happened just in KMail, but not for other mail readers, like Thunderbird or Evolution. The mails were duplicated on the remote account each time I connected using KMail. Please check default folders and filter settings: - Configure KMail -> for all Identities -> Modify -> Advanced whether all folders refer to the correct local folders (or remote folders on IMAP), not to Inbox, and do not cause cycles along with a filter on them by mistake - Configure KMail -> Accounts -> Receiving -> for all IMAP accounts -> Modify -> Advanced -> Trash folder whether the folder (or remote folder on IMAP) is correct and causes no cycle along with a filter on it by mistake - Settings -> Configure Filters... whether there is a combination of filter rules leading back to Inbox by mistake. Unfortunately I don't remember the exact wrong combination of settings here, but it works fine now (no duplicates any longer at least for IMAP and Local Folders resources). So it is at least worth to check, but no guarantee. René -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
