           Summary: Next/Previous unread folder actions sometimes skip
                    folders
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 2.0.89
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: message list
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: thiago at kde.org


Version:           2.0.89 (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

When you're in KMail2 and you press Ctrl+Plus (Next unread folder) or
Ctrl+Minus (Previous unread folder), sometimes it skips one or more folders and
goes to another folder with unread emails.

Note that the same folder that was skipped is almost always reachable with the
opposite direction. To be sure I have read all my email, I have to cycle all
the way with Ctrl+Plus, then repeat with Ctrl+Minus.

This does not happen to all folders. I have no clue what causes a folder to
have this behaviour. However, once this behaviour is set, it happens every time
to that particular folder, in a given direction.

Restarting KMail does not help. This setting is permanent.

The setting "Act on unread/new email on this folder" in the folder's properties
is active. Toggling that setting on and off does not help.

The only way I've seen to make the folder be reachable again is to delete it
and recreate.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to one folder
2. Ensure that there's another folder with unread email
3. Press Ctrl+Plus

Actual Results:  
The folder with unread email is skipped.

Expected Results:  
The folder with unread email is reached.
