Create a back up of your complete /home. 2. akonadictl stop 3. Rename/move ~/.local/share/akonadi/db_data/ (or delete it since you now= =20 have a back up of this mess). 4. akonadictl start.

I even thought of deleting m= ost=20 of my Google messages to accelerate this process, if I ever move to Kmail2. =2D-=20 Regards, Mick --nextPart2326013.Cahl8eIj46 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQEcBAABCAAGBQJVaI2LAAoJELAdA+zwE4Yed6oIAMFPT3v8cf4JBNA6RYnei1VD KNvXGV1AfV8D4yNgyPVy+qV2qPkUy8uUltZWC5AdshTRXYtATCXVB8i+F2FB13/S ectRtY9GKOT1FlFZxwWJV5fBdCwM3VSiXRGqAy+NLOk0QcOfzAkGGD/dau2aOxyr /+idWZo/3V9Sa9Ne1P9nYRnUzNGFdjP3JtUB4szNFaE6d1qzsRn3C848JtOvESqe TWTL+Kbah0KfY7RU9QHBXUalWrqe6ZKKnubyrohFDWt8e7C5DkGWNFxQZqZUQdF2 p3XiPrV3rZA3oi4VJj8WyYIOJvtP48aSjAPEJkBTxGAskgMBxVvb6NwXOzSskRo= =X7br -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart2326013.Cahl8eIj46--
