Description Mark 2011-06-07 12:17:38 UTC 
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.6.3) 
OS:                Linux

Actions as Check new mail, Reply, Forward have multiple variants (reply, reply to all, reply to ML, forward inline,...).  

The buttons in kmail smartly represent just one (most used option of these) but contain an arrow in bottom-right corner which should list other possible options. (I can do it now with Message>Reply to All, etc..)

This behavior is very convenient and is typical in many other mail clients too. 

It would be nice to have it working in kmail. 

Thank you, Marek

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Click on "the arrow" in Reply button, it does not offer any selection. 

Actual Results:  
it does not offer any selection. 

Expected Results:  
*Clicking in the "big area" of the button does the default and most common choice - simple reply,..

*Clicking on the arrow in corner pops-out a eg drop-down list with other choices : Reply, Reply to All, reply to ML,...

Try holding the mouse button down for 2-3 seconds. That expands the button here.
