Update: The examine is of course not valid for a \noselect mailbox.
But still it would be useful if \noselect mailboxes would be shown, because empty namespaces (no mailboxes under them) are also \noselect, and if they are not shown, I cannot populate them from within KMail.

Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report.

KMail2 was released in 2011, and the entire code base went through significant changes. We are currently in the process of porting to Qt5 and KF5. It is unlikely that these bugs are still valid in KMail2.

We welcome you to try out KMail 2 with the KDE 4.14 release and give your feedback.
