Hi,

I recently switched to using dIMAP on Kmail with my Gmail account, and it work sort of alright in the sense that it doesn't lose mail and such nasty things.

The experience could be a lot better for me, though, as

1.) incoming mails are not automatically fetched. When doing an explicit sync, they will appear of course.

There are quite a few folders I have in the account, and all of them are synced when doing the explicit sync of course. "Inbox" is merely one of them, so when clicking the button it will easily take two minutes or so until the folder "Inbox" in synced, which is quite annoying.

2.) It'd be great if it was possible to sync inbox only, or to make sure it gets synced first at least.

Cheers,
Nico

Please just report one issue per bug.
I didn't understand your 1). Have you marked the mail accounts to be automatically fetched all - say - 2 minutes?
2) Is a which already reported

Hi,

thanks for the comment.

This bug is rather old, and I don't know if it still applies at all: I'm not using Kmail anymore.

How do we mark the bug?
