Description Dmitri Koulikoff 2021-03-06 17:36:52 UTC
SUMMARY

I have more then 1000 folders in my mailbox and every time I upgrade the software I have to assign this setting to almost every one.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a mailbox with more than one folder or create a second
2. Try to select two folder pressing Shift or Ctrl

OBSERVED RESULT

The previously selected folder becomes inselected


EXPECTED RESULT

You can select more than one folder and then change the Folder Properties for all of them at a time.

kmail->configure->plugins->folder settings => you can define settings for several folders.
Comment 2 Dmitri Koulikoff 2021-03-07 10:18:12 UTC
I tried to do that but was unable. There are two reasons:

1. The minor is there is no possibility to include all subfolders with one click. Even all completely.
2. The magor is it warns that all settings in the selected folders will be overwritten while I need only one setting to be changed.

Comment 7 Dmitri Koulikoff 2022-01-16 15:47:15 UTC
It is not possible to select all subfolder of a folder in one click. Is it difficult to implement?
Comment 8 Dmitri Koulikoff 2022-01-16 15:50:54 UTC
Additionally, I have tried to add the option "Keep replies in this folder" to some folder, but got a warning that it will overwrite ALL the settings of these folder. I do not want to overwrite all. I need to set only one. 
How can I do that?
