Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.5) Installed from: Debian stable Packages Reported at http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=253842 The current UI makes it a default that all the IMAP folders are checked for new mail (if the account is checked for the new mail). To disable it, one has to select each folder separately in the folder list, and disable the checking for it. In my case (tens of folders with only 5 different ones that I want to poll) it is a really boring task; any time I re-create the profile it has to be repeated.
