Bug 268524

Version:           2.0.89 (using KDE 4.6.1) 
OS:                Linux

Started KMail and Auto-opened to the Inbox (only Folder I make very heavy use of) I selected a message and couldn't reply to it.  Selected another and found out that I could not mark it as unread. Turns out all the messages were marked like that.



Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Highlight a folder in some manner without explictly clicking on it. Easy method for me is to restart Kmail. 
2. Select a message and right click


Actual Results:  
3. See that nearly all options are greyed out.

Expected Results:  
3. Have option to reply, reply all, mark message and print as expected.

There is a workaround to explicitly select the folder. Either by double clicking it or selecting something else and reselecting the folder.

For heavy users of Kmail I would suspect that they would never notice this bug as they are always moving around. Anyone who is a simple or sedentary user would find this a showstopper.
