           Summary: Apply all filters does not work reliably on imap
                    messages
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.7
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: message list
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: bluelightning at bluelightning.org


Version:           4.7 (using KDE 4.7.3) 
OS:                Linux

When you select Apply All Filters with a number of messages selected in an IMAP
folder, quite often not all of the messages are processed.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Ensure you have some rules set up to move messages to other IMAP folders
(based on List-Id in my case)
2. Select multiple messages in an IMAP folder (in this case the Inbox)
3. Right click and select Apply Filters->Apply All filters (or press Ctrl+J)

Actual Results:  
Some of the messages are moved and then processing stops; occasionally it only
moves the last message selected. Re-selecting the messages that did not get
moved will result in some of those getting processed in the same fashion and
you can repeat until they all do, so the filters are matching.

Expected Results:  
All messages matching the filters are processed (and for the filters I have set
up, this would mean all get moved).

Message list is using "Activity by Date, Threaded" aggregation and the "Fancy"
theme. 

It seems if I move the messages manually to a local folder and try this it
works as expected, so it might be something to do with the delay in fetching
the message or perhaps the interaction with the list selection.
