           Summary: When renaming a folder, filters are not updated
                    accordingly
           Product: kmail
           Version: 1.13.5
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: filtering
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: alex.richardson at gmx.de


Version:           1.13.5 (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

I renamed one folder and after that all mails which had previously been
filtered to a subdirectory of that folder now landed in my inbox. Since this
was the folder containing all my mailing list subscriptions I had to adapt
quite a few filters to that new folder name. The settings dialog showed the
following target directory after renaming:

Unknown folder '.inbox.directory/.alex.richardson AT
gmx.de.directory/.inbox.directory/.Computer.directory/.KDE.directory/kde-scm-interest'

after changing it the dialog displayed:
Local Folders/inbox/alex.richardson AT
gmx.de/inbox/Mailing-lists/Programmieren/KDE/kde-scm-interest

without all those .directory entries.
It seems to me that the filters do not get updated if you change a folder name.
IMO this would be a quite important feature.

Reproducible: Didn't try
