Bug ID: 366356
Summary: Reply action picks the wrong To address
Product: kmail2
Version: 5.1.3
Platform: Kubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: commands and actions
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
When replying to an email address that is configured as an account in Kmail,
the Reply button inserts the To email address into the To field, instead of the
From address into the To field.
This behavior is tricky, because when I replied to the first account, the
second account was actually replying to itself! Very confusing.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set up Kmail with two (or more?) email accounts. Let's say the accounts are
[email protected] and [email protected]. Set up an identity for each email address.
2. Send an email from [email protected] to [email protected] (be sure to use the
appropriate identity).
3. In the Inbox of bbb, select the received message and press the Reply button
(or press the R shortcut key).
Actual Results:
I get [email protected] in the To field. This means [email protected] is sending a
message (with his own identity) to himself.
Expected Results:
I expect that the To field would show [email protected], because that is the address
in the From field.
Note that you can do the reverse: send an email from bbb to aaa, and reply to
bbb from aaa. You'll find that [email protected] is in the To field instead of
[email protected]. It only seems to matter that both accounts are configured in
Kmail. For email addresses not configured as accounts, the Reply action puts
the proper email address in the To field.
I see nothing in the header of my mails to that makes this behavior
understandable. It's not a mailing list.
