           Summary: 'Mark Mail as...' options disappear after being
                    applied
           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 either 'Mark Mail as Important' or 'Mark Mail as
Action Item' both options disappear forcing him to deselect and reselect the
selected email so that he can remove the marks if he made a mistake.

This does not seem very efficient.

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
- A green check icon appears next to the selected email subject
- 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
- click on another email to select it (a green check icon appears)
- Click on 'Mark Mail as Important'
- An exclamation point icon appear in the background of each selected emails


Actual Results:  
However, the 'Mark Mail as...' options have disappeared so the user cannot
remove the exclamation points righ away if he realizes he made a mistake.

Expected Results:  
'The Mark Mail as...' options should not disappear after being applied to allow
the user to reuse them or remove one or several of them.

Note: atm for the user to be able to remove both exclamation points he has to:
- Click on one of the selected email (the green check icon should disappear)
- All the remaining options disappear (delete, move, copy)
- Click on the other selected email (its green icon disappear too)
- Reclick on one email
- The options reappear
- Reclick on the other email
- Select 'Remove Important Mark'

Both exclamation points disappear but it is quite time consuming to do that.

However, if you do not follow those steps then only 1 exclamation point is
removed not both of them and the user still has to deselect and reselect the
same email for the options to reappear.
