Description Christian Boltz 2007-02-14 00:58:18 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.6)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

After testing KMail's new template feature, I found a big usability problem.

You can:
- set up default templates - in my case with german 
  attribution line
- create "named" templates using settings - composer - my 
  templates, for example a template named "reply english"
  with english attribution lines
- enter templates per idendity
- enter templates per folder

But you cannot choose to use a "named" template for a folder or idendity - which makes the "named" templates quite useless :-(

Instead, you have to paste the template to the folder or idendity. This is annoying already (I use about 20 idendities and even more mailinglist folders), but it will be really annoying in case you want to change the template...


The dialogs to setup the templates per folder / per idendity should offer to
a) use "named" templates (using a dropdown)
b) enter a special template for this specific folder / 
   idendity (textarea, already available)

Mass-changing component to "templates" and adding original template author to 
CC list.

Thank you for your feature request. Kmail1 is currently unmaintained so we are closing all wishes. Please feel free to reopen a feature request for Kmail2 if it has not already been implemented.
Thank you for your understanding.

Instead of creating a new feature request, please confirm here if the wishlist is still valid for kmail2.
Comment 4 Christian Boltz 2012-08-19 11:41:03 UTC
This feature request is still valid for KMail2 (v4.8.5)
