[Bug 857287] [NEW] [Oneiric] [Regression] [Kubuntu] Kmail is completely b0rked

[Swâmi Petaramesh]

Public bug reported:

After a couple weeks using Kmail in Kubuntu Oneiric beta, I can state it
loud : Kmail is completely b0rked, to the point it is hardly usable
(because completely unreliable).

- The only thing that went reasonably well was upgrading to previous
Kmail storage model to the new one, but once done...

- Mail that you want to send is often purely *LOST*:
- No message at all state that the to-be-sent mail is being processed, or sent, or in error, or whatever. All silent.
- email doesn't appear in "outbox", doesn't appear in "sent", looks like completely vanished.
- Can *sometimes* happen to be sent a week later ! Where was the email meanwhile ? Mystery.

- INBOX can sometimes stay hours wihtout being checked. Doing [F5] or
asking "retrieve mail" has absolutely no action. No error. Nothing
happens.

- Same thing on 2 different machines.

So, as a summary, the current version of Kmail in Oneiric  is unusable,
unreliable, loses mail. Period.
