           Summary: add "signature" of used account for any fetched mail
           Product: kmail
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: bluedzins at wp.pl


Version:            (using KDE 4.2.2)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

This wish is thought as safety in KMail but because of shortcoming of the
servers -- however sooner or later even the best server will crash.

Example of the problem: I am expecting some important mails, I have to accounts
on server X and sever Y. The thing is Y broke this morning and on X I didn't
have the messages (but I don't know it). The Y generates N empty e-mails. So
when I clicked "check mail in" I get several empty emails but since they are
empty I cannot tell if Y broke or X, thus I cannot tell if the mail I am
waiting for is gone or not.

Such thing happened to me this morning, I get 17 identical, empty "emails", no
to, no from, no return path. So the only thing I know that one (?) of the
severs went wrong, but which one? What mail is affected, I cannot tell.

Thus the wish -- add "internal" data, for KMail user, fetching mail from server
X add in header:
Fetched-from: X

So even if server answer only with bare message thanks to KMail I could still
figure out where did it come from.
