Description Sabine Faure 2010-11-17 20:11:01 UTC
Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

The user needs to click on a 'Local Folders' button to access the 'Select' dialogue and choose a folder to copy an email even if she wishes to copy it to an Imap resource folder.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
- Launch Kmail-mobile
- Click on your Imap inbox
- Click on an email
- Open the 'Actions' tab
- Click on 'Edit'
- Click on 'Copy Item To...'
- A 'Kmail-mobile' dialogue appears with only 1 button called 'Local Folders'
- Click on that button
- A 'Select option' dialogue opens
- In it select a subfolder of your Imap inbox
- There is now the path to that subfolder inside the button instead of 'Local Folders'
- Click on 'Ok'
- Go back to the Message List
- Click on the subfolder of your Imap inbox

Actual Results:  
The email you wanted to copy has been added properly.

This works, however this process is a bit confusing for the user who wonders how she could copy to another folder than Local Folders' at first.

Expected Results:  
I think that having a message like 'Click here to select a location' instead of 'Local Folders' would be less confusing.

Or it would be even simpler to remove the 'Local Folders' button altogether.

The same un-needed 'Local Folders' button is displayed when cliking on 'Move Item To...' instead of 'Copy Item To...'

This is not a button, but the combo box that represents the folder selector. The style on Maemo makes it look a bit unfortunate. On CE, this is a little clearer. In any case, this is the desired behavior, and not a bug.

In that case I'll close this bug then.

Thx for the confirmation ;o)
