Description Antonio Rojas 2009-11-16 10:45:09 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.3.3)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Archlinux Packages

When deleting an attachment from a message (on disconnected IMAP if it matters) the selection moves to the next message on the list. It should stay on the same message, since one probably wants to keep working with it (move it, delete more attachments...)

Works for me in KDE 4.4.0
Comment 2 Antonio Rojas 2010-03-06 23:51:48 UTC
No, still happens in 4.4.1

This is really ennoying. also would be nice to have the possibility to choose „delete all attachements“ right-clicking in one message...
Comment 6 Werner Meyer 2011-06-14 10:00:02 UTC
Even worse is another buggy behavior:

(using imap and lokal mbox-format)

copy an e-mail with attachement to a lokal e-mail-folder „bla“

after deleting the attachment of e.g. 5 MB the message is shown as e.g. to have 125 KB

But the file /home/user/.kde/share/apps/kmail/mail/bla has become 5 MB larger instead of 5 MB smaller!!!!!

(using kmail 3.5.7. - quite old version for the only reason, that there is no newer kmail-standalone-package 
- installing newer kde in older linux (opensuse 10.3) is nearly impossible
- using newer linux (opensuse) brings many problems
- and kde4 works worse than kde3 (e.g. worse printing-funktionality, missing kcontrol)

So please, have an idea to solve that problem for kde3.)

I think, it could be a problem for large e-mail-folders (mbox-files) on a nearly full harddisk.
In thunderbird compressing an “e-mail-folder” (means a file in mbox-format) writes a new file and then replaces the former with the new. So it needs place for the temporary data.

I suppose, kmail does something similar. If there is no place to write the temporary data, it failes. ???
What does kmail?
Where does it write? (I could give another path, where there is enough space.)
