Hallo Anne

This may be true in theory, but I lost many mails as well during my
tests with kmail2. I have some folders set up to delete mails older than
two months (mailinglist folders) and kmail2 moved these settings to
random folders. suddenly one of my archive folders has lost almost all
the content (as kmail2 automatically removed all mails older than two
months) (I must confess this was very fast - it took hours to restore
all mails).

I have backups, but is was not amusing to check every folder if there
were mails deleted or not.

At least it was not akonadi which removed my mails. But to an enduser
this does not mater.
