            Bug ID: 369662
           Summary: Double click on folders in dialog for saving several
                    (!) mail attachments not working
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 5.1.3
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: rm at anracon.de

When you want to save a mail attachment (e.g. a picture file) from a mail to a
folder in the system's folder hierarchy  you get a fully operable dialog window
- with configuration options in the upper right corner and navigation arrows,
.... In this dialog double clicks on folders work and open these folders which
gives you a handy, quick and reliable method to navigate to the target folder. 

However, when you mark several (!) attachment files  for saving to disk you
open a different dialog window which is reduced in its options (no
configuration bar on the upper right; no navigation arrows ). In this hampered
dialog window double clicks on folders to not work - it is an awful procedure
to navigate.  Furthermore you cannot place folders into  the left overview list
of places on the system. 

This is wrong and did not happen in versions 4.14 and 4.15 of kmail2. 


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a mail with several attachments 
2. Go to the mail structure view 
3. Mark all attachment files 
4. right click =>  save 
5. Watch the hampered dialog window that opens (no configuration options, no
navigation icons , no double clicks working on folders)

Actual Results:  
You get a different and reduced dialog windows than in a situation where you
just choose one attachment file for saving to disk. The dialog for choosing the
target folder where you want to save the attachment does not allow for normal
navigation.    

Expected Results:  
The same dialog window (with configuration options, navigation icons, double
clicks working) as in the situation where you just save one (!) attachment
should appear.
