Description sts 2007-11-22 11:05:40 UTC
Version:           1.9.50 (using KDE 3.96.00 (KDE 4.0 RC1), compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.22.9-0.4-default

I have checked for new mails. The most of new messages haven't the correct subject and from info.
After I have clicked on a message I can see the right subject and from info.

see attachment for more.

IMAP support in KDE4 is a bit broken at the moment.
This is somewhat of a problem in KDE3 as well (see bug 121272), but it could be more frequent in KDE4.

Fixed this one last night with 761486, I think. Please confirm.
Comment 7 Thorsten Staerk 2008-01-16 10:12:24 UTC
subject info is correct, sender info is not. The Sender info is "Unknown" till you click on it. Using courier imap. However, as soon as a mail is "read", all info is shown correct.
Comment 8 Thorsten Staerk 2008-01-16 11:18:25 UTC
It seems to be:
Sender info is correct if the sender has a name. If the sender only has an e-mail-address, it is not correct.
Comment 9 Till Adam 2008-01-16 11:41:47 UTC
Yes, but different bug. This is higher level parsing.
Comment 10 Thorsten Staerk 2008-01-16 13:59:56 UTC
The bug is closed for senders that deliver a name besides their e-mail-address.
Comment 11 Thorsten Staerk 2008-01-16 14:00:16 UTC
verified. Again good work :)

SVN commit 762362 by tilladam:

Fix the rest of 152692, another interesting QCString -> QByteArray gotcha.
Seems to work ok with more email adresses now.

Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this version of Kmail has been unmaintained for many years so I am closing this bug. Please try using the latest version of Kmail to see if your issue persists. If it does, please submit a new bug in "kmail2". Thank you!
