(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***) Package: kmail Version: 1.3.2 (using KDE 2.2.2 ) Severity: wishlist Installed from: SuSE Compiler: gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (SuSE) OS: Linux (i686) release 2.4.10-64GB-SMP OS/Compiler notes: Opon selecting "set status" It would be nice to be able to mark a message as "read only" or "Protected" or some such which would make it impossible to delete (via the Delete option or via the Empty mailbox option). Pegasus has this and its really nice to be able to leave an important message in an inbox and not have to worry accidentally deleteing it. You would have to offer an Unprotect or some such as well. Would be nice to be able to colorize the line in the folder index too on a message by message option. (Submitted via bugs.kde.org) (Called from KBugReport dialog)
I (unintentionally) created a duplicate of this request (#38531) having use= d=20 Forte-Agent under Wine before switching to Kmail. Agent uses a small Icon= =20 like a padlock to show the message has this status and calls it locking. Given the new facility of Kmail to delete mail from folders that are older= =20 than a certain amount I would like to add that this facility should protec= t=20 mail from this type of deletion too. --=20 Alan Chandler alan@chandlerfamily.org.uk
Coming from The Bat! I know this feature too. There every mail which is "flagged" (equivalent to the flag "important" in KMail) can't be deleted neither by the user nor the auto-cleanup.

One way how to make this could be: Add another configuration option to the Folder properties dialog! Between "Expire read mail after" and "Expire unread mail after" there could be "Expire read but <i>important</i> mail after" Just my 2 pence. ;-) Karl-Heinz --=20 Karl-Heinz Zimmer Senior Software Engineer Klar=E4lvdalens Datakonsult AB <mailto:khz@klaralvdalens-datakonsult.se> <mailto:khz@kde.org>

I would like to change this pages but at the moment I am working on other bug fixing tasks that are more urgent (yesterday's little journey in the land of Drag'n'Drop was an exception of that rule call it 'kick over the traces on a rainy saturday'). But I definitely want to solve that dialog size problem! Any suggestions how it could be achieved by splitting the Plug-in pages in a wise way are highly appreciated. (of course _patches_ solving part of that problem would be even more welcome!) ;-) Cheers Karl-Heinz --=20 Karl-Heinz Zimmer Senior Software Engineer Klar=E4lvdalens Datakonsult AB <mailto:khz@klaralvdalens-datakonsult.se> <mailto:khz@kde.org>
