#178818 — Kmail2 stores drafts in wrong folder

Hi folks,

I discovered a weired issue in kmail2.When I want to store a draft mail, it 
should be stored in the folder draft. But in real it stores in a folder, I 
creted new (a personal folder).

Is there a configuration file, where I can correct these?

Background: Alle mails are stored in ~/Mail. This folder was completely 
deleted and copied from another computer to this one (as I wanted to have all 
mails on every computer). I used rsync for that. This is working with several 
other computers, too. Only on this one I do have this issue.

Any ideas? Is this maybe related to akonadiserver?

Thanks for any help.

Best

Hans

The draft folder is configured in the account settings.

In kmail menu, select Settings / Configure KMail…

Select the "Identities" section on the left side of the configuration window.

Select your account and click "Modify…".

Switch to the "Advanced" tab and change the path to the "Drafts folder".

thanks so much! That was an easy fix. I searched below ~/.kde/, but could not 
find it. So easy! Should have found it myself. Shame on me...
