That is extremely puzzling. Both kmail and akonadiconsole are essentially frontends to the akonadi \
database. The latter is a bit more low-level and should more closely represent what is in the database. \
It does not make sense that kmail should be able to show entries while akonadiconsole cannot. (I assume \
your restarted kmail so that any in-memory data structures have been reloaded from the akonadi database.)
* If you look at other folders and resources/accounts in akonadiconsole's browser, does their content \
correspond to what you see in kmail/kaddressbook/…?
* In the Agents tab, are there any resources with errors or off-line?
* In the DB Browser tab, selecting the PimItemTable and sorting on ‘dirty' (1 before 0), are there any \
entries with 1 in that column?
Best,
Erik
