Description patrick 2008-03-12 10:48:33 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 3.5.9)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I use kmail/kontact and have the message preview pane disabled, so I have to doubleclick any message to view it. As some message take several seconds to open (IMAP w/ large attachments or GPG signed mail e.g.) and others open in a split second this needs some kind of progress or activity indicator.

If one doubleclicks a mail which takes some seconds to open, there is no indication, that kmail is actually doing anything (aside from freezing the UI ;-) ) so if ine is in a hurry one might doubleclick again in the assumption that one simply botched the doubleclick, just to have the message pop up twice, as the second click is buffered...

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.
