Bug ID: 340625
Summary: imap parent folder properties regression (git/4.14)
Product: kmail2
Version: Git (master)
Platform: Kubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: folders
Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
Reporter: rjvbertin at gmail.com
Until recently it was possible to set certain properties (retrieve frequency)
of a collection of IMAP folders by editing the properties of the parent folder,
be it the account entry in the folder list, or a parent folder like "[Google
Mail]".
It seems that this is still possible for "regular" folders (like the "Devel"
folder under which I have gmail store folders for KDE, MacPorts etc.
mailinglists), but it no longer is for "[Google Mail]" or the account entry.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Right-click an entry in the mailbox folder
2. Select the properties action
Actual Results:
The action has been deactivated for the "account folder" as well as for
"[Google Mail]", among other actions.
Expected Results:
It should be possible to set at least certain properties on those folders too,
like the retrieval interval. After all the folders directly underneath (Inbox,
"All Mail" etc) do have the option to use their parent folder's property for
those settings. Because of that I'm marking this a major issue.
I discovered this when I wanted to deactivate indexing for several folders at
once, tired of having to wait for a folder sync each time I want to change that
folder's properties. I'd deactivate email indexing altogether as used to be
possible in the nepomuk days, but apparently we no longer have that choice...
