[nzlug] Beware kmail disconnected IMAP

[Robin Sheat]

I use kmail with disconnected IMAP on my laptop, and today it got confused 
about something, and asked if I wanted to resync. It sounded like something 
you'd want it to do. _Don't do this!_

I have gone from an inbox of size 1,500 to 0. And not in a nice 'sorting and 
deleting' fashion like I periodically do myself, but in a 'everything's gone, 
even on the server' sort of way.

Of course, now I'm setting up backups on the server. A little late.

(This is kmail on gutsy, I've never seen this error on previous versions)
