Thanks for your response.

I found about 12 bugs in KDE bugzilla
related to KMail2 Tools=>Find Messages
but I submitted mine anyway as bug #286992.

I also submitted a bug about
impossibility of creating top-level IMAP folder
in KMail2 on remote laptop,
as it seemed to be claimed that this had been resolved.
