            Bug ID: 505900
           Summary: When filtering emails, display only the filtered
                    results without their whole thread
    Classification: Applications
           Product: kmail2
      Version First 6.3.3
       Reported In:
          Platform: Debian testing
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: message list
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
When searching for a string, if you are using the threaded message list (which
is great), then kmail shows the whole thread, making you wonder in which mails
the string has been found.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Search for 'foobar' in the filter bar on top of the message list

OBSERVED RESULT
A few threads are shown, but with ALL the history of the thread, even messages
that do NOT have the 'foobar' string in them

EXPECTED RESULT
Add an option (a toggle) to _only_ display the mails that are filtered, without
the rest of the threads.
Better yet, you could toggle the search mode between 2 modes:
- By default, only show the emails that contains the searched string, or
- Show the filtered mails within their thread, but visually display which one
contains the searched string (perhaps with a special icons at the beginning of
the subject?)
