           Summary: Kmail 4.7 does not allow for manually changing the
                    order of mail folders
           Product: kmail2
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: folders
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: rm at anracon.de


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.7.0) 
OS:                Linux

I updated to KDE 4.7 with Kmail 4.7 on my Opensuse 11.4 system last weekend. In
contrast to older Kmail versions 1.13.x it is no longer possible to manually
shift the order of folders on a given folder level in the folder hierarchy. 

In Kmail 1.13.x (for KDE 4.4) this worked by performing the following steps:

Step 1: Right mouse click onto the top bar of the folder region. 
Step 2: Selection of the option for manual ordering option via dragging and
releasing. 
Step 3: Dragging the folder to a a chosen position in the folder sequence (on
the present folder level) and releasing it there. (The new position was clearly
marked by a bold position line in older Kmail versions). 

In Kmail 4.7 step 1 and 2 can be done - however, step 3 is not possible. Kmail
only offers a drag and drop into other folders and not to a new position in the
folder sequence (on the folder's present level within the folder hierarchy). 


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Perform the steps described above to reproduce the bug.  

Actual Results:  
Kmail only offers for a drag and drop of folders into other folders and not for
a positions change in the order of the folders.

Expected Results:  
A change of the folders position in the folder order on a certain level of the
folder hierarchy should be possible by dragging and releasing a folder.
