One possibility is that the mails got the \Deleted flag set in some way. With akonadiconsole it is \
possible to delete such mails o remove their \Deleted flag.

So install akonadiconsole if you do not have it already. Then open the browser tab, navigate to the \
folder where the greyed=out mails are present. Change the view as necessary to find the mails that are \
greyed out in KMail. You can select all of them and right click. In the context menu that appears, you \
have the option to delete them. You can also, after selecting one mail, below right remove the \Deleted \
flag from a mail, if present (do not forget to press Save).

If a \Deleted flag being set is not the issue, I do not know what could be the issue.


Success,

Erik
