Description Sabine Faure 2010-09-15 20:58:49 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

After clicking on the Mark All Mails as Read on a shared folder containing at least 300 unread emails, the user can see that number decreased a few at a time (less by 10 unread emails moved as read at a time).

It takes a long time for the unread count to be down to 0 and disappear whereas in the desktop version it is instantaneous.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Prerequisite: subscribe to a shared folder containing at least 300 unread emails
- Launch Kmail-mobile
- Select the shared folder containing 300 unread email
- Open 'Actions' tab
- Click on 'Mark All Mails as Read'

Actual Results:  
The number of unread emails decrease little by little until it reaches 0 and the 'Unread: X' mention totally disappear

Expected Results:  
The user should not see the number of unread emails decrease. It should be instantaneously down to 0 and the unread mention should disappear at once too.

Should be much faster with the recent introduction of mass-modify jobs. Previously it was marking every mail as read individually, now it's just a single command.

Comment 2 Sabine Faure 2010-11-17 18:55:18 UTC

I retested this today 

Now once the user clicks on Mark All Mails as Read from the 'Actions' tab the tab closes and nothing happens for about a minute and then all of a sudden all the emails are marked as read all at once.

This is confusing for the user who wonders why it does not work immediately.

Comment 3 Bernhard E. Reiter 2011-01-20 21:33:10 UTC

Needs to be checked for CE. A general process indicator on mass operations would be nice (I do not remember if we already had an issue for it or not.)

Comment 4 Sabine Faure 2011-01-20 21:46:43 UTC

I retested this bug today and I can still reproduce it.

The result is exactly the same as in comment #2: 'once the user clicks on Mark All Mails as Read from the 'Actions' tab the tab closes and nothing happens for about a minute and then all of a sudden all the emails are marked as read all at once.'

So I agree with Bernhard that a process indicator would be nice.
