           Summary: Some foldes cannot be removed from an IMAP account
           Product: kmail
           Version: 1.9.7
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs kde org
        ReportedBy: kebekus kde org


Version:           1.9.7 (using KDE 3.5.7, compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2.3 20030502 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.3-52)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.4.21-27.0.1.EL-MI_20050124

I have an IMAP account where I have 

a) folders that contain actual mail

b) folders that contain other folders

It seems that folders of type (b) cannot be removed, even if they are empty. The context menu that opens when I right-click on the folder name in the list of folders does not show the entry "remove folders" that I see in the context menu for folders of type (a). For me, the only way to remove these folders is to move them to the local disk, and to remove them there.

This is something of a nuisance in an otherwise great program. A bugfix would be highly appreciated.

Best,

Stefan.
