Description Mats Ahlgren 2006-01-03 09:13:30 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.3)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

When exporting the contact list, if Kopete doesn't tell Kontact to set the AIM screenname to the 'primary screenname', then the exported buddy list will be almost useless! For example if you try to export your buddy list in CSV format, you get no screennames at all (quite problematic if, say, you've given everyone in your buddy list a nickname). Kopete only exports the 'primary screenname', which is blank because Kopete only adds an SN to a Kontact contact's arbitrary-length list of SNs.

Fix: Kopete should have a checkbox when exporting, which is checked by default, which says "set AIM screenname to default if none exists" or something similar.

Estimated time to fix: trivial

(a wishlist should also be filed with Kontact: Kontact should export all AIM screennames, not just the default one)

I'm not sure to understand correctly the bug.
I fail to see the link between AIM and adressbook

If it's so trivial, please suggest a patch :-)

is your AIM account the only account you have?

Quoting Matt Rogers 2006-02-26: is your AIM account the only account you have? 

Yes.

Dear Bug Submitter,

This bug has been stagnant for a long time. Could you help us out and re-test if the bug is valid in the latest version? I am setting the status to NEEDSINFO pending your response, please change the Status back to REPORTED when you respond.

Hi, sorry for the bad news, but AIM was discontinued last year, so I will be closing this bug.

Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone!
