The attached patch applies to the 
file /trunk/KDE/kdepim/kmail/kmpopfiltercnfrmdlg.cpp (Revision 702957)

This patch allows:
 - to select several emails at once and process them simultaneously.
 - to sort emails by selected action.

Hotkeys are added:
- key "R" marks highlighted mails to "Recieve"
- key "L" marks highlighted mails to "Leave on server" 
- key "K" marks highlighted mails to "Kill mail on server"

This extension allows manual filtration on server much faster.

For example:
  Sequence Ctrl-A + "K" marks all messages to be deleted on server.
  Sequence Ctrl-A + "R" marks all messages to be downloaded.

It should be mentioned that I'm talking about the POP filter window.

These hotkeys only mark emails and the real action (Download/Delete/Later) 
occurs only after user hits "OK" button. All changes are shown in the window 
and nothing will surprise user.

If it is necessary to have more mnemonic names for hotkeys I have changed
numbers ("1", "2", "3") to letters:
- "K" (Kill) for deleting on server.
- "L" (Leave, Later) leaves messages on server.
- "R" (Receive) downloads emails.
