- * KMail's handling of IMAP namespaces changed in KDE 3.5. You used to be
- able to set a prefix for your mailboxes (most commonly INBOX. for
- courier-imap and cyrus-imapd servers) that would tell KMail where to look
- for mail folders. In KDE 3.5, KMail now handles both personal and shared
- namespaces. It no longer strips the namespace from the beginning of the
- folder path, though, so some users will see that all of their folders are
- now subfolders of the inbox.
-
- Due to this change, KMail may get confused when it starts after upgrading
- and crash. We don't have a solution to the bug at this time, but there is
- a workaround that doesn't result in any dataloss.
-
- The folder $HOME/.kde/share/apps/kmail/imap/ holds cached copies of all
- the mail headers in your imap account. Deleting everything in this folder
- (rm -rf ~/.kde/share/apps/kmail/imap/*) allows KMail to startup. KMail
- will need to redownload all the mail headers, but it would need to do so
- anyway since it thinks the mail folders appearing under the inbox are
- different folders.
-
- In some cases even this workaround has not been enough. If KMail still
- behaves strangely for you after doing this, you may need to move KMail's
- configuration file out of the way in addition to removing its IMAP cache.
- To do this, "mv ~/.kde/share/config/kmailrc
- ~/.kde/share/config/kmailrc.bak". After doing this, KMail should behave
- better, but you will need to reconfigure all of your accounts.
