Do you mean uploads from local to imap? This should be fixed when you update.

yes, that's what I ment.

but unfortunately it still does not show any progress - cvsup from this morning

CVS commit by burghard: 

Show an accurate progress dialog at least when 1 message is uploaded.
For several messages the progress shows only the overall status but this can only
be changed in the progressmanager api which is probably a past-3.4 task.

*** Bug 147215 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

I was unable to reproduce this using kmail 1.10.1.

When moving messages from local to IMAP I get an overall progress bar which is accurate and individual progress bars for each message which also appear accurate.

it works for me also in trunk.
