Description Oscar 2007-11-07 11:16:07 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.8)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

If I've had kontact in offline mode and then bring it back into online mode via the button in the text-field (not the menu, although the same thing might happen. havent tried it) it doesn't immediatly start to try to fetch mail which I thought it should, but after I've prompted it to download my mails it doesn't show up in the panel. I'll have to click on some other folder and then back in the inbox folder to get my mails to show up.

Probably not how things should work?

There are already bug reports about this, see bug 83893 and the bugs linked there.

The other part of your bug report (work online should fetch mails directly) is a wish.

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.
