Description David Todd 2009-03-25 12:25:26 UTC
Version:           1.10.3 (using 4.1.3 (KDE 4.1.3), Mandriva Linux release 2009.0 (Official) for i586)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.27.19-desktop586-1mnb

I receive regular email newsletters with numerous links to websites in them.  I would like to be able to click on these links, have the relevant web pages open but stay with Kmail.  

At the moment when you click on a link you are immediately transferred to the browser window.  This means you have to switch back to Kmail, click on the next link, go to the browser, switch back to Kmail, click on the link etc.  This is   

It would be very nice to be able to click on several links and have the pages open in the background.

Thank you for your feature request. Kmail1 is currently unmaintained so we are closing all wishes. Please feel free to reopen a feature request for Kmail2 if it has not already been implemented.
Thank you for your understanding.

Instead of creating a new feature request, please confirm here if the wishlist is still valid for kmail2.
Comment 3 David Todd 2012-08-19 14:31:14 UTC
I think this is still valid for Kmail2.
