Description Janet 2009-09-13 18:52:40 UTC

Version:           1.12.1 (using 4.3.1 (KDE 4.3.1), Debian packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.31-0.slh.1-sidux-686

It's nice to be able to open several mail folders in tabs in kmail. Alas it is not possible to close the tabs with a middle mouse click like it is e.g. in dolphin and webbrowsers. It would be more convenient to have a consistent tab closing behaviour throughout all applications.

Bug 207270

Possible fix using ktabwidget instead of qtabwidget and a eventFilter to catch the MidButton MouseButtonPress event to avoid the tab selection.
May not confirm to the pimple idiom.

I guess this will be fixed in Kmail 2?
