            Bug ID: 386010
           Summary: KMail2 fails to archive folder
           Product: Akonadi
           Version: 5.6.1
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: grave
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Archive Mail Agent
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: admin at tho-otto.de
  Target Milestone: ---

While trying to archive a folder within KMail2, i get an error message:

Failed to archive the folder 'xxx'. Downloading a message in folder 'xxx'
failed.

i'm not complaining about why that happens, but i'm complaining about the
behaviour of KMail2 here. Firstly, aborting the whole operation only because a
single message could not be accessed is absolutely catastrophic for a feature
that  is primarly used to backup mails, or to transfer them to a different
location. Aborting that renders the whole folder unusable. Secondly, it does
not give *any* hint about which message could not be accessed. Maybe the
problem could be solved by just deleting that single message, but i get no clue
which one.

It would be nice it that error behaviour could be improved.
