Version: 1.99.0 (using KDE 4.8.0) OS: Linux I would like to see the filterbar in the message list implemented in a similar way like in thunderbird. I will attach a screenshot of their filterbar. Their way of filterbar has following advantages: - filter criteria (unreadsare accessible faster since there is no dropdown menu necessary. - filter criteria can be combined. - There is a "sticky" item, which allows to choose if the filter should remain in effect, if you change the mail folder. I can see that an obstacle of implementing this may lay in the fact that Kmail has more possible filter criteria so there could be a problem of making this fitting in gui (at least if there is explaining text with it). I would suggest then that the user could choose which items would appear visible and which would appear in as additional criteria in additional dropdown with selectable items. Furtheremore I would like to suggest to implement an additional filter critera: Filter by date range (from/(to)). I will file this wish item also with Akregator. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: see above Actual Results: see above Expected Results: see above see above

"There is a "sticky" item, which allows to choose if the filter should remain in effect, if you change the mail folder." already implemented in 4.9

Great. Thank you very much. Could this also be added to Akregator?
We can't use the same code and I don't have to adapt akregator perhaps in future but not for 4.13 Regards
