Version: (using Devel) Installed from: Compiled sources Compiler: gcc (GCC) 4.1.3 20070929 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.1.2-16ubuntu2) OS: Linux Every time I start a new message, the HTML mode turns on and and "Format" toolbar shows. I could not find any setting to make plaintext the default.
I can not reproduce this, either. HTML mode can be toggled with View->Formatting (HTML) in the composer, and for me, it remembers that. Only HTML signatures would automatically activate HTML mode. Please make sure you have the lastest version.
I experience the same difficulties with KMail 1.9.52. Signature is text-only.
It seems that in [Composer][Toolbar htmlToolBar] section of kmailrc, the setting "Hidden=true" is not set and when it is set, KMail ignores it. If I set this value manually and start KMail, the value is overwritten with "true". Looks like a bug to me, right?
> Looks like a bug to me, right? The formatting (HTML) also depends on another option in the composer. Could you please try to reproduce the problem with a clean config file (either by deleting (+backup) your kmailrc or with a new user)? And please post the exact steps how to reproduce this with a fresh config then. Thanks.
Works fine at least in 4.1rc and 4.1 release.
