Sure, that would of course be better. But it's just not implemented yet. I'm moving it to a wish, since it really is a wish for an implementation of an optimization. *** This bug has been confirmed by popular vote. *** verified for kmail 1.9 and kdepim-3.5.9 confirmed on Kubuntu, same versions I think IMAP does actually not support moving mails on the server, so an upload is necessary. At least I couldn't find the word 'move' in RFC r3501, and I remember that the guy implementing the new Akonadi IMAP resource said that as well. You are right in a sense that a server side MOVE command is not in rfc 1730 yet it can be emulated by running a server side COPY and then deleting the source. While this may not be perfect, it is much better imho than uploading every message again just because of moving it to a different folder. I know that sylpheed-claws does not require me to re-upload a message when moving mails. Please reopen. The new IMAP resource for Akonadi implements this with COPY + DELETE, so that will fix this issue once a KMail 2 based on Akonadi is released. |
