[Bug 158978] [NEW] kmail deleted contents of inbox with dimap

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

I use kmail on my laptop with disconnected IMAP, and just had it delete
the contents of my inbox.

I was having connection issues with my IMAP server, and pressed F5 to
check for new mail. It popped up and said something about not being in
sync (it made a reference to sync status 7), and did I want to resync or
not. This wasn't a very clear message, but I presumed it was safe and
told it to go ahead. It churned for a few minutes, and when it was done
the only message there was one that had arrived while it was doing this.
Checking the mail server showed that the maildir files were gone.

This seems Really Bad. Fortunately, there's nothing vital there
(although I'd rather not have lost 1,500 messages).

I have many folders under the inbox, and they appear to be fine.
