           Summary: Start Maintenance options only appear after email
                    selection
           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

After the user clicks on Start Maintenance a new view appears but it is unclear
to him what can be done from it.

It's not until he ventures to click on an email that he sees all the available
options: Delete emails...

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
- Launch Kmail-mobile
- Click on any folder containing at least 2 emails
- Open the 'Actions' tab
- Click on 'View'
- Click on 'Start Maintenance'
- A new view appear with the folder name on the top left hand side and its
emails on the right
- Click on one of the emails

Actual Results:  
Under the folder name a lot of functionalities appear: Delete email, Move
Item To..., Copy Item To..., Mark Mail as Read, Mark Mail as Important, Remove
Action Item Mark


Expected Results:  
Would it not be easier for the user to understand the purpose of this view if
the options (Delete, copy, move...) were already displayed.

The user will do the same as now ie clickign on the email(s) to select them and
then on one option to apply it.

ex:
...
- Click on 'Start Maintenance'
- A new view appear with the folder name on the top left hand side and options
underneath as well as and the folder emails on the right
- Click on one or several emails (a green check icon appears next to each
clicked email marking them as selected)
- Click on an option (ex: delete)
...
