Description Damir Perisa 2006-09-30 18:21:33 UTC

Version:           unknown (using KDE 3.5.4, Arch Linux)
Compiler:          Target: i686-pc-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.18-ARCH

reproduce:
* open kontact
* use kmail inside kontact 
* open gwenview or other tool using kipi plugins
* select a image to be sent per email and use kipi plugin "Email Images ..." to send it - use "Kmail" as email agent 
=> it opens a window with a new email (this is expected behaviour) 
* you can send the email correctly
=> however, the kontact window disappears while this new email window opens... and if you start it again (kontact) it opens but claims that kmail is running already in a separate instance (opening it in a new window) ... very strange behaviour.... shouldn't kipi detect the email-agent of kde and reuse it instead of killing kontact, start kmail and use it?

Hi,
hm, i can't reproduce this behaviour. I am using KDE 3.5.5. Can you give me any hint?

Comment 2 Damir Perisa 2006-12-12 12:24:44 UTC

indeed, in 3.5.5 i cannot reproduce it myself either. fixed - feel free to close.

Comment 3 Damir Perisa 2006-12-12 12:25:16 UTC
