kmail 1.13.0 and the problem is worth : when i delete a lot of mails, kmail
move each mail (one by one) in trash folder (I prefer the suppress flag method
like evolution does because is much appropriated for imap account) this is very
very slow and often irresponsive. Ok is slow ... I'm waiting.... next I empty
my trash.  But later after do some mail operation :  I delete one mail -> annd
kmail reread the trash folder -> kmail found some hundred deleted mails (~700
on 1000 deleted and purged .....) 


Evolution is faster but it is the buggiest application I never seen (try to
rename a folder containing 2000 mails, send a empty message without email
adress and without subjet is possible....Display an HTML message with image is
very slow. It is impossible to have more than 2GB pop folder on 32bit system
with ext4 file system yet in 2010)
Kmail is better but crash often (try to deleted quickly some mails with preview
windows activated. While this do some extra operations crash often kamil). And
kmail is too slow on QuadCore 3Ghz 12GB RAM.... seriously...

Conclusion : i use linux more ten years. Linux systems are very efective with
network tasks. Today linux has very sophisticated desktop programs. BUT manage
large email box in POP or IMAP (not very new technology .....) is painful task.
