Hi,
Now, I'm checking what the possible causes of this error, with migration from kmail to
kmail2.
.
If I made a mistake and if there's any bug or something that can be improved to avoid that.
Error that I may have committed:
I configured Kmail as POP and I imported the messages in a non-recommended directly from the folder .kde / share / apps / kmail in a very large number of messages (more than 10,000).
I have not used the mechanism of export (folders with messages) from Kmail because did not know existed, so I may have caused this error to have improperly imported messages.
I was in a hurry, so I made the simplest way, as I always have and always worked. But
Kmail2 has several changes.
The folder was Kmail home/user/.kde/share/apps/kmail. and now, in
Kmail2, is in home/user/.local/share/local-mail /
What can be improved in Kmail:
Akonadi gave warning error when I moved Kmail folders
There is no clear guidance on how you can export messages. To export, you click on Kmail folder, and right-mouse button, select the "Archive Folders", which will create a compressed archive (zip, tar, etc.). Belquimão said that to me in
MageiaBrasil Forum.
It seems that other changes were made in
Kmail2. So, I think the best thing to do would be to test again the
Kmail2, on a clean install of Mageia 2, making all the correct procedures, the migration of Kmail Mageia 1 for
Kmail2 of Mageia 2 . But do not know when I'll have time to do that.
So I'm testing Thunderbird in Mageia 2 using IMAP setup, and Thunderbird works well with IMAP setup, is very simple to setup and use. And I have kmail working very well in Mageia 1, with POP setup (in another partition).
Note: Who wants to try to use other email managers, there are
Evolution and
Claws-Mail in official repository Mageia 1 and Mageia 2.
