Description Maxwedge Condo 2000-11-28 18:19:10 UTC
(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package: kmail
Version: 2.0
Severity: normal
Installed from: rpm (mandrake 7.2 install)

I created 5 top level folders and 33 subfolders under them to organize my incoming mail.  I set up filter rules to move mail containing "From <blah> transfer to <folder blah>".  The filtering works as far as putting the right mail in the right folder according to the rules but it marks the messages read when it does so.  Now I come home to find a "You have new mail" OK-box on my screen but wehn I go to kmail it shows no unread messages and I have to go to each folder and try to remember if I read the messages in there or not! :(

 I see the same problem as well but I am using procmail to filter messages.  Procmail filters the messages to 
 my subfolders correctly.

  KMail does not distinguish between read/unread messages.

 Just trying to fill in more info.

  Version: 1.1.95.2

That is not supposed to work see the FAQ at least not until someone 
implements it.

Hi do you perhaps also use procmail?
I indeed can not reproduce the problem you reported otherwise.

See kmail.kde.org FAQ don't access ~/Mail directly from procmail or you=20
risk losing mail.

You should upate anyway.

I have the same problem in Version 1.9.4 (not using procmail, but using disconnected IMAP). 
Has the proposed solution in bug 112724 been implemented yet?

regards,
Martin
