[Bug 50039] Re: [Data Loss] KMail mysteriously changes messages to "No Subject", "Unknown" sender

[BUGabundo]

Jim please test one of this two methods:

* close kmail, wait a few seconds so it can right to disk;
   #pkill kmail
   #pkill kio
   delete all .index* from ~/.kde/share/apps/kmail/ and subfolders. This will force kmail to recreate the index and can take a while for 4GiBs of email. Also ALL POP accounts will lose the information of already downloaded emails. So if you leave a copy on server they will be redownloaded. You can remove the dups with the kmail tool (Folder->Remove Duplicate Messages).

* on Kmail, for every folder on kmail, hit Folder->Rebuild Index. get
out of the folder and get back in. see if the messages have reappeared.
This technique has helped me many times, but not every email is
recovered


HTH.
