           Summary: No visible UI indication of copy jobs running in the
                    background
           Product: kmail2
           Version: Git (master)
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: thiago at kde.org


Version:           Git (master) (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

When moving (yes, moving) emails from one folder to another, KMail & Akonadi
send IMAP UID COPY commands to the server. However, the mail folder listing in
KMail shows all emails as done moving. There's no indication in the UI anywhere
that the copy is still going. The effects of this are:

1) no idea when it's safe to shut down or suspend the computer

2) some actions that require interaction with the IMAP agent are not
responsive, such as checking a folder properties

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1) select some emails in a folder
2) move them to another folder in the same IMAP server (I used the 'm' keyboard
shortcut)

Actual Results:  
Emails shown moved immediately, no other UI shows that the IMAP agent is still
working

Expected Results:  
Emails should be moved gradually on the UI as they are moved on the server. At
the very least, the IMAP agent should show that it's busy somehow. KMail shows
absolutely no progress bar for this, and Akonadi Console shows "Connection
established" (instead of "Ready")

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 3.1.6-1.fc16.x86_64
Compiler: gcc
