            Bug ID: 320972
           Summary: imap server side search not possible
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.10.3
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: erenoglu at hotmail.com

I've disabled nepomuk as my mail resides on a local IMAP server and I connect
online to that server. Since I connect online, I assume only some part of mails
are downloaded so there's no way nepomuk could index everything. Anyway, mail
server (dovecot) already has the indexing running so server side searches are
very fast.

In Kmail2, I'm trying to do a search but I'm presented with a dialog which says
"You have disabled full text indexing of emails. Searching is not possible
without that. You can enable it in "System Settings"."

This is true, but I don't need Kmail2's full texts indexing, I just want it to
make an IMAP server side search.

This is also needed when your server is very remote and you work in online
mode, without downloading all mails.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1) disable nepomuk and full text indexing on the account and folder if
necessary
2) try to search for something using "Find" dialog (S)
3) see that you're presented with the dialog box


Expected Results:  
Server Side search shall work.

If I'm missing something and if there's other method to do server side search,
please let me know.
