OK, I see this bug has been marked as fixed, and I am not as good at interpreting, if \
the bug I have experienced is the same, but here it is:

I am using Kmail 1.9.7 on Kubuntu Feisty (i386 version).

A few days ago I synched my dimap mail account after a long while of not doing it. \
There were a few hundred mail that needed to be filtered into different dimap \
folders. Kmail crashed in the middle of the operation.

After restarting it I found some of my dimap folders completely empty, and some 12 \
email messages in my inbox with headers "No Subject" and completely empty. 

I checked that the empty kmail folders were still with messages on server (though it \
seems, not all of those), but the "No Subject" messages in KMail's inbox were also \
empty in the server (checked with squirell mail). So I just deleted my Kmail Dimap \
account and recreated it using normal imap.

Then in a few days I saw some mail loss in another of my dimap accounts as well. \
Incidentally I had my birthday the day before, so I opened the folder and saw a \
"Happy birthday" mail message from my friend, which suddenly turned into "No Subject" \
mail message once I clicked on it :(  How do I know if I did not loose some important \
mail for my doctoral studies? I have a feeling that I do loose mail from time to time \
as kmail crashes (it does once in a while), but those cases leave no sign except for \
me being unable to find some old message from time to time, or seeing strange gaps in \
my mailing list folders.

Please DO something about this. I myself really like Kmail and still use it, but for \
my wife I configured thunderbird without a second thought. \
