Got the impression that the problems with dups and crashes were solved. As I had a perfect working Kmail for more than a month after I got the hint that removing the automatic filter use from the filter configuration and doing the filtering of emails manual only, I thought it was time to sniff out if the problems are gone.
Within half an hour I had four duplicates and a crash as usual. Was I wrong that the problem was solved or did I miss some instruction during the updates of the past.
For now it is back to manual filtering of my pop email accounts.

I haven't had a problem since two months ago after running "akonadictl stop" and "rm -rf ~/.local/share/akonadi". I have automated filters set up as well.
Have you tried resetting akonadi?

For me, duplicates are still happening even with turning off the auto-filter and running the Filters manually but they are a lot less and i've not had any crashes. Some of the duplicates i get are from weeks ago, sometimes marking them as read used to remove the duplicates but that seems to have stopped now.

No and I don't even think that somebody looked at them. For better or worse, POP3 is on life support in KMail and the way the filtering got gradually reworked in the latest versions is fundamentally incompatible with how POP3 is handled (and also fights against the maildir structure). KMail once had the best POP3 handling, but those times have passed.

There is actually some work ongoing to make maildir handling much faster than before. Currently it's not in any released version because some issues are still being ironed out. Some groundwork has already landed in the master branch, though.
It might make it for Applications 17.08.

I'd settle for correct handling with no races. :-)

Not completely passed, KDE3 still exists. On openSUSE I've always removed kmail4/5 in favour of kdepim3. We have two desktops with about 4 GB (20 years) of email each. Searching is a bit slow, but otherwise the old client suits us just fine. Pop filtering is as good as ever.
Cheers, Michael
