Check mail with disconnected IMAP 2. break connection the the server and let kmail notice the change 3. establish the connection again 4. let kmail check mail Actual Results: all local disconnected IMAP folders are gone Expected Results: Check mail without deleting anything Portage 2.0.51-r15 (default-linux/x86/2004.0, gcc-3.4.3, glibc-2.3.4.20050125- r0, 2.6.11-rc4-ck1+ i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.11-rc4-ck1+ i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1400MHz Gentoo Base System version 1.6.9 Python: dev-lang/python-2.3.5 [2.3.5 (#1, Feb 18 2005, 00:59:56)] ccache version 2.3 [disabled] dev-lang/python: 2.3.5 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r6 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.6.3, 1.9.4, 1.5 sys-devel/binutils: 2.15.92.0.2-r4 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.10-r5 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.8.1-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium-m -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/env /usr/kde/3.4/ share/config /usr/kde/3.4/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb / usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium-m -pipe" DISTDIR="/mnt/data/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs autoconfig confcache distlocks sandbox sfperms" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://ftp.tu-clausthal.de/pub/linux/gentoo/ http://linux.rz. ruhr-uni-bochum.de/download/gentoo-mirror/ ftp://linux.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/ gentoo-mirror/ http://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/mirrors/gentoo ftp://ftp.uni- erlangen.de/pub/mirrors/gentoo ftp://ftp.join.uni-muenster.de/pub/linux/ distributions/gentoo ftp://ftp.wh2.tu-dresden.de/pub/mirrors/gentoo ftp://ftp. join.uni-muenster.de/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo http://mirrors.sec. informatik.tu-darmstadt.de/gentoo/ http://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/ gentoo/ ftp://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/gentoo/ ftp://ftp.gentoo. mesh-solutions.com/gentoo/ http://pandemonium.tiscali.de/pub/gentoo/ ftp:// pandemonium.tiscali.de/pub/gentoo/" LANG="en_US" MAKEOPTS="-j 2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/mnt/data/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/portage_overlay" SYNC="rsync://rsync.de.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 X a52 aac aalib acpi alsa apache2 apm audiofile avi berkdb bidi bitmap- fonts cddb cdparanoia cdr crypt cups curl dga divx4linux dpms dts dv dvb dvd dvdread emboss encode fam fame fbcon flac foomaticdb gdbm gif glitz gtk gtk2 ieee1394 imagemagick imlib imlib2 ipv6 java javascript jpeg jpeg2k kde kdeenablefinal libcaca libg++ libwww live lzo mad matroska mikmod mmx mmx2 mng motif mozsvg mp3 mpeg mysql mythtv ncurses network nls nptl nptlonly nvidia odbc oggvorbis opengl pam pcre pdflib perl pic png python qt quicktime rdesktop readline real rtc samba sasl sdl slang smime softmmu spell sse sse2 ssl svg tcltk tcpd tga theora threads tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts unicode usb userlocales v4l v4l2 vidix wmf xanim xine xml xml2 xmms xv xvid xvmc zlib" Unset: ASFLAGS, CBUILD, CTARGET, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS
