(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package:           kmail
Version:           1.4.1 (using KDE 3.0.1 )
Severity:          normal
Installed from:    Mandrake Linux Cooker i586 - Cooker
Compiler:          gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Mandrake Linux 8.2 2.96-0.76mdk)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.4.18-6mdk
OS/Compiler notes: 

When you wish to delete a lot of mails (i mean about 800) it takes a lot in IMAP. I know that IMAP supports something like "range of messages" so if i wish to delete from message 10 to 300 and from 350 to 750 simply i need to put imap delete command with "100-300350-750"

Yes and KMail also make use of this. If deleting message takes long then you 
probably have KMail configured to store the deleted mails in the local trash 
folder.
