Hi

When you receive a big message in kmail, a pop-up appears asking you whether you want to download it, be asked again later or remove it from the server. If you have configured kmail to fetch emails every minute and click on "ask again later", you'll have this pop-up every minute.

So, my idea is: why not add a 4th possibility: "add to download queue" or something like that ?

You should have a "download queue" folder where the message (only its subject) would appear and clicking on it would let you download it.

If a message is in the download queue, it would be ignored by kmail until you dowload it.

What would be even better would be to be able to use KGet to download the messages in the "download queue" folder.

Thanks a lot !

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.
