Yeah, that would indeed be a good solution. In particular, together with the upcoming feature to have local subscription allowing you to have different subscriptions for different accounts (in KMail) for the same account on the server, e.g. you could create a normal IMAP account (with subscription of the archived folders) in addition to your dIMAP account (which would be subscribed just to the non-archive folders). Please submit an enhancement request for allowing unsubscribed folders as expire/move target. Regards, Ingo
I am happy to see this request for enhancement already filed but sad that it appears to be languishing. This feature is CRUCIAL for using Gmail through KMail. It must be possible to move messages to the "Spam" folder without needing to be subscribed to that folder. An alternative (and probably easier) solution would be to allow individual folders to be excluded from automatic synchronization and only be synchronized at the manual request of the user. Then I could subscribe to "Spam" and be able to move message into it yet not have to wait for it to synchronize all the time.
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.
