some KMail woes...
Hi Gene,
I’ve sporadically always had KMail (TDE) use 100% of a CPU upon startup and it
almost always crashes the first time I try to use the quick “Search:” (below
the toolbar). Oddly once it crashes the first time and gets restarted search
works fine. Couple thoughts tangentially related to your posts:
- Do you have any filters that check by datetimes?
I once had a filter, that was suppose to only be upon income mail, setup to
trash anything older than 400 days. Whatever caused it, it didn’t always
function correctly and would (seemingly randomly) trash items in folders
older than 400 days. I’m sure there was some user error I was committing,
but I removed it after having to restore from backups one too many times.
- Have you checked the filters that reference the folders not getting mail
sorted to them properly?
I just moved several sub-folders to new main branches. About half of them
started dumping their mail into the main inbox. Upon investigation the
target for the Filter Actions, Move Into Folder was broken. (It’s obvious,
says something like folder not found.)
Again, not sure if this helps you directly, but maybe it’ll give you an extra
clue to tracking your issues down.
Best,
Michael
