[Kde-pim] Filters and KMail2

[Milian Wolff]

Hey all,

the state of filters in KMail2 is good - if you manage to get them working.

It is virtually impossible to import filters from a different machine, because:

FilterImporterExporter::readFiltersFromConfig
-> calls purify
-> checks 'isEmpty'

different machines / setups will most definitely have a different random ID 
assigned to accounts, which means 
  // Remove invalid accounts from mAccounts - just to be tidy
in purify will most definitely hit. Hence isEmpty is true as well due to 
mAccounts.isEmpty() == true.

I hacked it locally to get my ~50 filters imported. Afterwards I had to go them 
all by hand to "fixup" the folders and account assignments.

Furthermore KMail2 instantly triggers a "apply all filters to all mails in 
current folder" thing - at least it did so for me. Imo this should not take 
place. Hitting OK/Apply in KMail1 's filter dialog never issued a "run all 
mails through filters".

Is anyone working on filters and could improve this state?
