Description François Bissey 2010-01-09 21:56:16 UTC

Version:           1.12.3 (using 4.3.3 (KDE 4.3.3), Gentoo)
Compiler:          i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.32-gentoo-r1

I currently leave messages on server as I read my email from two
different computers in different locations (home and work basically).
However I'd like to selectively delete from the server emails I receive 
from some mailing lists and family and so on when I am at home as I have no
need for most of these at work.
Conversely I could imaging that someone deleting messages from the server
may want to leave some there occasionally. Although I guess this would be
more convoluted as the messages would have to be filtered before the deletion
phase.

So basically, your point here is to be able to apply some filtering (that is to download a mail and eg move it to a folder, mark as read etc.) and delete it on server (regardless the global setting - keep mail on server after downloading), correct?

If so, then I guess your idea boils down to having a filter action 'Delete on server' in the (normal/non-POP) filters dialogue - am I right?

Moreover, if so, then this is a duplicate of Bug 50176.

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.
