Description Sabine Faure 2010-05-24 00:27:45 UTC 
Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

Wordwrap functionality allow the user to type more than 80 characters per line.
However, sending an email not using the wordwrap functionality allows the user to type longuer lines (ex: sending a log or a patch)
But it is impossible to extend the sent text further than it already is.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
- Launch Kmail
- Click on 'New'
- Go to Options menu/Wordwrap (uncheck it)
- Reduce the size of the 'Composer' dialogue by half
- Fill in the recipient (yourself), the subject and enter two lines of text without pressing enter (the text goes automatically to the next line)
- Click on 'Send'
- Open the email
- Reenlarge the window to its normal width

Actual Results:  
The text is still displayed on only to lines whereas there is blank at the end of both lines.

Expected Results:  
The text should be moved to one full line and maybe at the beginning of the second depending on the screen's size.

Trunk, Svn Rev 1129830

The opposite works fine: 
If the text is sent with a large window width then reducing its size works (they are more lines displayed).

So it would make sense if enlarging the lines worked too.

I retested this and I still get the same bug so I am reopening this bug since it seems not to be a duplicate after all.

I could not reproduce the error following the last set of steps provided, using KMail 4.9.1. Can anyone else confirm this is now working?

When writting the email, lines are not wrapped at all — Not even visually. And once I get back the email, only the line breaks I introduced manually are there.

Closing for now, please feel free to reopen if you can reproduce this with KDE 4.9.1 or later.
