Description Kevin Yeung 2006-03-01 06:20:38 UTC
Version:           1.9.1 (using KDE KDE 3.5.1)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

Hi, under KDE 3.5.1 (but not KDE 3.5.0), when I click (left, middle) a URL konqueror is brought to the foreground to open the webpage. This is inconsistent with 3.5.0 (where konqueror stays in the background and the KMail window stays on top) and less usable.

In a mailing list digest, I often click 10-15 URLs at one go before deleting the email and switching to konqueror to read what's open. Under 3.5.1, every URL click changes the focus. Consequently, I have to switch back and forth 10-15 times.

i think you should change the focus prevention settings of KWin, this has not much to do with KMail (which just calls KRun).
