            Bug ID: 306152
          Severity: major
           Version: 4.9.0
          Priority: NOR
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
           Summary: Renaming folders meets with limited success
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: mailinglist at endosquid.com
          Hardware: Other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
         Component: folders
           Product: kmail2

Folder structure:

Car
->MBOX-GoodInfo85

I believe the result of a conversion from kmail the old (and bug-free) to this
kmail (I want to give up, but have 15+ years of email in)

So, I want to rename the folder, since I now have 100+ MBOX-prefaced folders,
which mess up....everything, including my long-lost 400+ filters I set up over
months.

Anyhow...I go into "Filder Properties", rename the folder...come back out. Same
name. Go back into Folder Properties, the name is now changed, the name in the
folder list magically changes. Exit, go back into program...no change.

Check on disk, and now I seem to have two structures: an mbox file, and a
Maildir structure: the mbox seems to be the old mbox, the Maildir seems to be
the converted maildir, and NOWHERE is the name I want it to be converted to.

This is quite some program we've got here. Nothing seems to work!

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Rename folder
2. Check results
3.Profit!
Actual Results:  
Nothing is renamed

Expected Results:  
It to be renamed
