Kmail not saving/importing filters - tde-devels

3 Mar 2017

Hi,

Just upgraded a site to 14.0.4 and my users are having real problems
with Kmail not saving/reading back filters in kmailrc (KMail 1.9.10
Trinity R14.0.4 on Debian Jessie).

I can set a filter within Kmail and it looks fine but when I quit and
restart there are no filters shown in Settings->Configure Filters.

I can export the filters to a file but when I do so, I see the following
on the 'console' (I'm running via ssh -X/xterm, /opt/trinity/bin/kmail):

...
 TQLayout "unnamed" added to
KMail::FilterSelectionDialog "filterselection", which already has a layout

This appears when I click 'Overwrite' after selecting a filename.

The file content looks fine:

...
 [Filter #0]
Applicability=0
AutomaticName=false
ConfigureShortcut=false
ConfigureToolbar=false
Icon=
StopProcessingHere=true
accounts-set=
action-args-0=Banana\tnice
action-name-0=add header
actions=1
apply-on=check-mail,manual-filtering
contentsA=Weeble
fieldA=<body>
funcA=contains
name=<<body>>: Weeble
operator=and
rules=1 
but if I try to import this file (within the same kmail session or in a
new one) I again get the "TQLayout "unnamed"..." message when I
select
the file and there are no filters shown in the selection popup.

Looking at kmailrc, when I set a filter in Kmail I can see the filter
section has been added (same as the above).

Quit Kmail and Filter #0 is still in kmailrc.

Start kmail and I get this on the 'console':

...

Some of that is obviously because I'm running via ssh -X but none of it
obviously applies to kmail.

Go to Settings->Configure Filters and there are no filters shown.

~/.trinity/share/config/kmailrc still contains the [Filter #0] section
but kmail's just not read it in or ignored it.

Try the import thing again... and I get the same result as before.

Ummmmmmmmm..... any ideas?

I'm happy to compile/debug/try test versions etc but I've no idea where
start looking in the kmail source.

TIA.

PS - If it has any bearing, I am using the kiosk settings but I've been
doing that for decades and it's never caused owt like this.
