Description Mathias Homann 2009-05-04 19:16:07 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.2.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

I have kontact on desktop 2, am doing something else on any other desktop, kontact shows me a number on the tray icon telling me that there are unread mails.

I click the right mousebutton and select the folder in question from the "unread mails in..." submenu, and i get dragged over to the desktop that kontact is on, but it does not switch to mail, it stays on whatever it was on.

Bad thing: the first unread mail in the folder i selected gets marked as read.

This bug has only been reported for versions before 4.14, which have been unsupported for at least two years now. Can anyone tell if this bug still present?

If noone confirms this bug for a Framework-based version of kontact (version 5.0 or later, as part of KDE Applications 15.08 or later), it gets closed in about three months.

Just as announced in my last comment, I close this bug. If you encounter it again in a recent version (at least 5.0 aka 15.08), please open a new one unless it already exists. Thank you for all your input.
