Description Richard Homonnai 2011-10-27 11:40:37 UTC

Version:           4.7 (using KDE 4.7.2) 
OS:                Linux

From one day to another, I cannot choose my sender identity anymore, there is only one address, and no dropdown anymore. I tried deleting and re-adding some identities, but it's still the same. Only a sender address, which I cannot change.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Create two identities and try to switch between them. It worked until now, but now the drop down is gone.

Actual Results:  
Drop Down is gone and replaced with a (not editable) text field.

Expected Results:  
Drop Down of all Identities

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 3.0.6-gentoo-richBOOK
Compiler: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc

???
Do you have several identity ? 
If you have 1 identity you don't have combobox
Could you provide a screenshot from composer and identity list (hide critical information before to provide screenshot)

Hi,

Yes, I have plenty of them. See this screenshot (second column hidden):

However, when I want to compose a mail only the Address of "Ria" is in the composer: http://ria.rpgfiction.net/userdata/bugs-kde-285087/composer.jpeg

It just feels as if the other identities wouldn't exist!

It's not the identity combobox that you show.
Please activate it in "display" menu.

Yeah, I just found out about it, thanks :)

It seems somehow the input field just has been disabled
(View->Identity) [In German it's Ansicht->Identität] and "From" has been
enabled. Now I disabled "From" and enabled "Identity" and I am happy again.

Thank you very much :)
