Description Willi Richert 2005-12-20 19:22:52 UTC 
Version:           1.9.1 (using KDE 3.5.0-2.2.fc3.kde, Fedora Core release 3 (Heidelberg))
Compiler:          gcc version 3.4.4 20050721 (Red Hat 3.4.4-2)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.12-1.1381_FC3

When pressing Ctrl in konqueror or kmail every links becomes accompanied with a shortcut, which is a nice thing. In kmail, however, the "F" and "R" shortcuts are bound to reply and forward. Those key must be omitted in kmail.

With pressing I mean pressing and releasing
Comment 2 Thiago Macieira 2005-12-21 02:35:42 UTC 
Confirmed.

Should the list of bound keys be passed to KHTML to avoid assignment, or should KHTML grab all those options ahead of KMail?

BTW, this problem can be reproduced as follows, as well:
Press Alt to highlight the menu entries; press a shortcut for one of the menus, like E for Edit. The menu isn't opened, but the action bound to the shortcut is.
