Hi all,

I have come across this due to problems with my server setup so the error uploading folder is not kmails fault.  What I thought though as I was clicking through all these dialog boxes was how cool it would be to have a yes to all button.  For people like me who don't care about the errors.  I realise that this kind of thing would result in message loss in some cases but how about a warning dialog telling you how much of a bad idea it is when you enable this feature?  Kinda like html emails etc.

I came across this using dimap.

Regards,

Sorry to reply to my own wish so soon but I just thought of something.  It would be good if a passive popup appeared much like when you have new mail telling you about the errors and invited you to click on it to see a log of what happened.  I think it may be better than clicking continue so much.  <rubs sore finger>

Thank you for your feature request. Kmail1 is currently unmaintained so we are closing all wishes. Please feel free to reopen a feature request for Kmail2 if it has not already been implemented.
Thank you for your understanding.

Instead of creating a new feature request, please confirm here if the wishlist is still valid for kmail2.
