Description Gastón M. Tonietti 2008-07-08 19:14:21 UTC

Version:           1.9.52 (using KDE 4.0.83)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

When I write the mail in plain text mode all work fine.
But when I write it in HTML mode, all blank lines are lost, I thinks it is due to use empty paragraphs <p....></p> instead of <br/> to insert empty lines.
Another weird think that happens is that the mail content for text/plain Content-Type uses one line per each word in the mail body, so if I put this in the composer:

KOffice, like most KDE applications, has the unique selling point ...

You will get this in the mail source:

KOffice, 
like 
most 
KDE 
applications, 
has 
the 
unique 
selling
...

You can see it better in the attachments.

I think I fixed the wordwrap issue recently in r828900, see http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=828900 (the hidden widget had small width and thus incorrectly wrapped the text).

And for the <p> vs. <br> thing: There's already a bug report about this, see bug 86925.
