On a positive note: forwarding just started working again

Hi,

Let me say something positive for once ... but it's about KMail 4.13 so if that's no longer your thing just move on :)

For a long time I was unable to forward emails that were in the inbox of my main GMail account (accessed as a standard IMAP account). The menu actions were simply disabled for a reason I've never been able to understand. To forward a message I could either use Reply and then modify things as needed, or go into the "All Mail" folder and forward from there.

Just now I noticed that this is no longer needed. We'll see if it sticks of if it's a "freak" happy accident (say an uninitialised variable that just happened to be initialised correctly this time).

If you're still with me: how can this be, supposing it's not an accident? Is there something the remote IMAP server can do that disables forwarding functionality in a given folder? Is there a setting (folder property) I can apply locally?
I'm perfectly happy with this version on this machine (I have 4.14.x on another machine which has different issues) so I don't plan to upgrade but applying a patch is certainly a possibility.

Thanks,
René
