Bug 251383

Version:           1.13.5 (using KDE 4.5.1) 
OS:                Linux

I would like to be able to select multiple emails and then print them all at once by clicking print. But when multiple emails are selected, the print button is disabled.

Reproducible: Always




I though I could work around this issue by moving all my emails to a new folder and then archive this folder to a zipfile. After unzipping this file, I thought I could use enscript or muttprint to print all the emails, e.g.:

unzip Archive.zip; cd NewFolder/cur; 

for f in *; do echo $f;
muttprint --paper=letter -p - -f $f | ps2pdf14 - $f.pdf
done

Unfortunately, muttprint prints pdf attachments as raw jibberish.
kmail prints emails nicely, but it's very time consuming to have to select each email one-by-one, click print, set all print options (it never remembers your preferences), and click OK.

So it would be nice to be able to select multiple emails and print them all with one click. If that's not possible, would it be possible to expose the print routine so that I could substitute kmailprint for muttprint?
e.g., I can view an email, "kmail --view file:`pwd`/722992"
so could I do something similar to print? "kmail --print file:`pwd`/722992"
