Description Peter Oruba 2007-06-08 10:27:01 UTC

Version:           1.9.7 (using KDE 3.5.7 "release 10.1" , openSUSE )
Compiler:          Target: x86_64-suse-linux
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.18.2-34-default

Mark a message paragraph that contains tabs. Hit 'r' to compose a reply. The marked paragraph is qouted, but all tabs are replaced by spaces.

Here using:

Qt: 4.5.0 + qt-copy-patches-936035
KDE: 4.2.68 (KDE 4.2.68 (KDE 4.3 >= 20090327))
kdelibs svn rev. 949044
kdepimlibs svn rev.949046
kmail svn rev. 949046
on ArchLinux i686 - Kernel 2.6.28.8

I can confirm this bug.

Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report.

KMail2 was released in 2011, and the entire code base went through significant changes. We are currently in the process of porting to Qt5 and KF5. It is unlikely that these bugs are still valid in KMail2.

We welcome you to try out KMail 2 with the KDE 4.14 release and give your feedback.
