Ever since I upgraded from Karmic to Lucid, KMail has exhibited a fairly serious problem: it does not properly delete messages from a POP server, resulting in the same messages being downloaded multiple times.
For reference, bugs are filed on bugs.launchpad and bugs.kde. I haven't seen any sign of a resolution, or any identification of the root cause.
In the meantime, in order for KMail to be at all usable, I have setup the following as a stop-gap (in case anyone else is suffering from the same issue, and needs to be able to use KMail):
1) Disabled automatic checking of email
2) Disabled strigi file-indexing
3) Created an "unread messages" search folder, so that I can quickly delete the duplicate emails
4) Disabled "mark messages read" when viewed in preview pane
Anyone else experiencing this issue? Have any other ideas to resolve it?
