Description Josef Spillner 2010-07-19 19:20:43 UTC

Version:           1.13.2 (using KDE 4.4.2) 
OS:                Linux

As someone interacting with many people over the world in different languages, I somehow miss the ability to specify that some profiles have different languages attached to them. This way, the template text languages could be made independent from the KDE language. To give an example: Currently, I run KDE in Italian. However, within my German and English work context, I sometimes want KMail to say "Am Donnerstag, 15. Juli 2010, um 14:16:14 schrieben Sie:" instead of "In data lunedì, 19. di luglio 2010 11:11:33, hai scritto:".

I'm aware of the academic nature of this bug, but it still would be neat if KMail and KDE apps in general would support multilingual environments better. I'm also aware of the workaround of setting the text manually, but if KDE already ships with the translations, there should be a way to just load them and to make good use of the macros.

Reproducible: Always

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.
