Description Piotr Szymański 2004-08-31 22:21:20 UTC
Version:           1.7 (using KDE KDE 3.3.0)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc version 3.4.2 20040820 (prerelease) (PLD Linux)
 
OS:                Linux

Hi,
What i want is to be able to select many fodlers at once from the folder list even from different mail accounts (pop3/imap). 
This would result in:
- the thread window shows mails from all folders
- changes from the properties dialogue would apply to all the selected folders, the same goes for all actions other actions possible on those folders (deleting and stuff) ofcourse when folder would be undeleatable (ex. because no permission on imap) the only the user would be prompted (skip, cancel etc.

Also a possibility for recursive option changing in kmail would be nice -> i change one setting of the top folder and click Change in subfolders and it does.

I've written a short hacky perl script for doing bulk disabling of mail-checking (see #82683).  Its available from 
 http://www.astro.gla.ac.uk/users/paulm/Scripts/bulkNoCheckMail.pl 

Use at your own risk!
 
You may need to edit it slightly depending on which folders you want to change.

Thank you for your feature request. Kmail1 is currently unmaintained so we are closing all wishes. Please feel free to reopen a feature request for Kmail2 if it has not already been implemented.
Thank you for your understanding.

Instead of creating a new feature request, please confirm here if the wishlist is still valid for kmail2.
