Description david 2002-06-19 13:55:28 UTC
(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package:           kmail
Version:           KDE 3.0.1 
Severity:          normal
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          GCC 2.96
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

When replying to an e-mail message in which some text has been selected only the selected text is quoted in the reply window.

This behaviour also occurs with the "Reply All" and "Reply List" actions but not when the message is forwarded.

I would have expected the text selection to be ignored when replying to an e-mail message.

Closing bug request #44106 since the described 'bug' was exactly what
things *should* be like: Replying to a mail _shall_ quote only the
seleccted text if selection exists.

It's a feature. People can use it so they don't quote too much (like with=

this mail).
