            Bug ID: 314876
           Summary: Syncing IMAP blocks folder properties dialog
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.10.0
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: folders
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: bugs at mrvanes.com

While (re)syncing IMAP contents (e.g. after expunging the local cache) folder
properties popup can be selected but is blocked (does not appear) until the
sync is finished.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Stop akonadi,
2. Clear local IMAP cache (.local/share/akonadi)
3. Restart akonadi
4. Start Kmail2
5. Watch IMAP folders being synced
6. Right-click folder, select folder properties
Actual Results:  
No folder properties pop-up until sync finishes

Expected Results:  
Expect either disabled folder properties while syncing, or a pop-up (i.e.
independant threads for user interface and sync).

This is somewhere between bug and wishlist. The behaviour is somewhat
unexpected and confusing.
