One of the nice things in KMail is that you can quickly search for the correct mail with the Quick Search Bar. A problem I always have is that i’m not sure in which mailbox the mail is which I’m searching.
One of the annoying things in KMail is that changing folders resets the quick search bar, so you need to type in the keyword again to filter the messages and see if it is in that folder. Doing that in 10 folders is not real fun.
But I can understand why KMail does that. If you have a keyword and switch folders and don’t see any messages that makes you think KMail is broken and you might not realise a search is active. The search simply did not result in any messages matching the search.
With Mailody I’ve decided to go for another solution. As soon as you as you switch folders and have a search string in the quick filter bar, the thing flashes for a fraction of a second. Enough to get your attention and realise why you are not seeing all messages of that folder.
