           Summary: RFE: limit number of loaded messages in folder
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.7
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: rnovacek at redhat.com


Version:           4.7 (using KDE 4.7.0) 
OS:                Linux

KMail always loads all message headers in the folder. This takes a lot of
system resources for large folders (more then minute for ~18000 mails). Since
most users are IMHO interested in most recent emails it would be great if we
can set how recent emails should be loaded. For example when folder is
selected, only emails from last 30 days will be shown. The rest of the folder
will be loaded after clicking on some button.

This change would have positive influence on application responses as well as
system resources used.

Reproducible: Always



Expected Results:  
Load only most recent mails in the folder.
