           Summary: [regression] Copy/Move/Jump folder list dialog filters
                    folders wrongly
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 2.0.89
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: commands and actions
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: thiago at kde.org


Version:           2.0.89 (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

In KMail 1.x, the Copy/Move/Jump dialogs (C, M and J shortcuts) would allow for
quick typing of the destination folder and allow for selecting subfolders. In
KMail 2.x, this functionality has usability issues. In addition to bug 262033,
the filtering is wrong: the subfolders are not selectable, but parent folders
are.

This has the weird effect that if you click the "New subfolder" button and
create the subfolder, it is not shown, and no feedback is given to the user
that  a folder was created.

Please change back to the KMail 1.x style of filtering.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select any email
2. Press C, M or J
3. Start typing the name of a folder that contains subfolders


Actual Results:  
You can move up & down in the folder hierarchy from the folder names that
matched to the roots, but the subfolders are not matched.

Expected Results:  
The folder hierarchy is shown, but the parent folders to the folders that
matched the search should not be selectable. The subfolders of the folders that
matched should be visible and selectable.

OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.36.2-server-1mnb
Compiler: gcc
