I tried to get in touch with them but unfortunately it seems they are too busy to answer my mails. :-(( ======================================================================= New Features ------------ This patch gives a new feature to your kmail. 1. The AutoTrash feature This one lets you setup a number of days for each folder after which older messages will be moved to the trash-folder. (see Description below) Description ----------- The folder-dialogbox now has a checkbox to activate AutoTrash for the folder. If activated one can enter a number of days after which the mails in this folder expire and will be moved to the trash-folder when the folder is selected next time. AutoTrash runs every time you select a folder but it does not seem to be too slow, even for folders up to 3000 messages. The checkbox and therefore the AutoTrash feature is disabled for the system-folders. Installation ------------ - If the file youdownloaded ends i .gz, use gunzip kmail_AutoTrash-for-2.0.patch.gz to uncompress - Go to your kdenetwork-2.0 directory and enter patch -s -p0
