Reproducible: Sometimes

Actual Results:

Comment 1 Laurent Montel 2012-02-15 10:20:54 UTC
please save this mail as mailbox format and attach to this bug report
Thanks
Comment 2 Daniel Moyne 2012-02-15 13:01:43 UTC
I wish I knew how to do that with Kmail that apparently does not propose anything to save a particular mail with a menu ; alternatively I could send directly a copy of this bad mail to you ?
Thanks
Comment 3 Laurent Montel 2012-02-15 14:55:03 UTC
kmail->file->save as
Comment 4 Daniel Moyne 2012-02-15 23:37:25 UTC
Sorry to big to be attached there after being saved !
Comment 5 Laurent Montel 2012-02-16 08:16:27 UTC
Ah ?!
So send me directly
Comment 6 Denis Kurz 2016-09-24 18:01:49 UTC
This bug has only been reported for versions before 4.14, which have been unsupported for at least two years now. Can anyone tell if this bug still present?

If noone confirms this bug for a Framework-based version of kmail2 (version 5.0 or later, as part of KDE Applications 15.12 or later), it gets closed in about three months.
Comment 7 Denis Kurz 2017-01-07 21:36:49 UTC
Just as announced in my last comment, I close this bug. If you encounter it again in a recent version (at least 5.0 aka 15.08), please open a new one unless it already exists. Thank you for all your input.
