It will eat your emails http://gustavonarea.net/blog/posts/do-not-use-imap-support-in-kmail-it-will-eat-your-emails/ http://gustavonarea.net/blog/posts/do-not-use-imap-support-in-kmail-it-will-eat-your-emails/#comments Sun, 22 Jun 2008 17:36:02 +0000 Gustavo http://gustavonarea.net/?p=56 I was not aware that I was losing emails because of Kmail since I switched from POP3 to IMAP in all my email accounts ~1 week ago, until I saw how Kmail deleted all of my unread messages after a crash.

I suspected that I was loosing emails and that was the conclusive proof. I thought it was caused by an issue announced on my provider’s blog some days ago, which was fixed.

What are the consequences? It worries me that I don’t know them all. Among the few consequences I’m aware of, the worst one is that three of our servers were down today for almost 2 hours because I didn’t receive the monthly receipt nor its reminders; fortunately, our highest traffic websites (like GetGNULinux.org and translations) are hosted in other servers.
