Maildir Akonadi

Wed Oct 26, 2016 1:26 pm
Dear All,

I migrated from Evolution to Kmail.
I use Debian Stretch with KDE now.
For my old emails I use mainly a Maildir folder in ~/Documents/Maildir.
In Kmail I created a maildir folder ~/Documents/Mail and copied the folder in Maildir to Mail.

But the emails are not stored in ~/Documents/Mail, but in ~/ .local/share/akonadi/file_db_data/
I found some folder which named from 00 to 99 there.
What is this for a system, please ?
I read something about akonadi, it seams that it's "only" a cache, but not store emails ?
This seems not to be a maildir.
I like to archiv my emails in a simple Maildir.

What I have to to, please ?

Kind regards

Rawbit

Actually, this *is* (part of) akonadi's cache.

The mails should be stored in the configured folder (~/Documents/Mail in your case), in maildir format.
Unless something goes wrong with syncing them back...
