           Summary: Un-needed button when copying emails to folders
           Product: KMail Mobile
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: sabine at kdab.net


Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

The user needs to click on a 'Local Folders' button to access the 'Select'
dialogue and choose a folder to copy an email even if she wishes to copy it to
an Imap resource folder.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
- Launch Kmail-mobile
- Click on your Imap inbox
- Click on an email
- Open the 'Actions' tab
- Click on 'Edit'
- Click on 'Copy Item To...'
- A 'Kmail-mobile' dialogue appears with only 1 button called 'Local Folders'
- Click on that button
- A 'Select option' dialogue opens
- In it select a subfolder of your Imap inbox
- There is now the path to that subfolder inside the button instead of 'Local
Folders'
- Click on 'Ok'
- Go back to the Message List
- Click on the subfolder of your Imap inbox

Actual Results:  
The email you wanted to copy has been added properly.

This works, however this process is a bit confusing for the user who wonders
how she could copy to another folder than Local Folders' at first.

Expected Results:  
I think that having a message like 'Click here to select a location' instead of
'Local Folders' would be less confusing.

Or it would be even simpler to remove the 'Local Folders' button altogether.
