Package: kmail
Version: KDE 2.2.2 
Severity: wishlist
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
Compiler:          gcc-2.95.3
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

I'd like the folder display in kmail being (optional) case sensitive.
Since KDE2.0.0 a lot of KDE apps have been changed to treat filenames case \
insensitive. I don't know if this limitation is inherited from QT, but anyway: Case \
sensitivity has always been commonly implemented and used on UNIX environments. I \
really don't see much sense in reversing the commonly used default behavior in favour \
of a M$ like treating (which is IMHO braindead).  KDE is (among others) a GUI, and \
humans are case sensitive. Therefore, kde should be.
