            Bug ID: 341421
           Summary: Translations of strings in libkimap.po are spread to
                    unrelated places in GUI
           Product: kdepimlibs
           Version: 4.13
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: aspotashev at gmail.com

There are string collisions between libkimap.po and other parts of KDEPIM and
for that reason I cannot make better translations for libkimap.po.

Example:
   I would translate "Delete" in libkimap.po as "Folder deletion" because it
will fit the message "%1 failed, server replied: %2" (%1 = "Folder deletion"),
but if I actually do so then the same translation can be see in the message
composer's context menu (there is an action named "Delete" to delete the
selected text).

How to fix:
  Add contexts (e.g. "IMAP request") for most of the strings in libkimap.po.

I hope the KF5-based version KDEPIM does not have this bug because there are
translation domains in KI18n, but can't say for sure because I didn't test it.

Reproducible: Always
