            Bug ID: 323066
           Summary: local folders not created or used.
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.10.5
          Platform: Debian unstable
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: critical
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs@kde.org
          Reporter: fredrick.o.jackson@gmail.com

kmail no longer stores my email in local folders. This started after kmail
crashed and corrupted my folder structure. After repairing my folders and
re-importing my email in kmail, i find that kmail will no longer store my email
in maildir format, and further will not export my emails in any format I'm
familiar with or use. Is it possible for kmail to store my emails in maildir
format? if not, can I export it to maildir format? simply put, I've already had
kmail corrupt my entire email store twice and I don't trust the new backend
that stores everything in one file, permitting no chance recovery if a single
byte is corrupted.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. unable to get kmail to store my email in maildir format, period!!
2.
3.



My concern is that I have no UNBREAKABLE way of storing my current email store
which contains more than 10,000 emails. I've used kmail and the maildir format
for at least six or seven years and the maildir format has saved my email store
against any number of problems that could have destroyed it. I need a
TRUSTWORTHY way of backing up my email store.
