Works fine here. We have a messagebox when we can't save message (perhaps a fix after 4.8.0) Ok message was bad I fixed it in 4.9 (add new i18n) I'm not sure I understand your last comment. I have just re-tried with 4.8.1 (Kubuntu-ppa) and there is no error message when I try to save a file with an invalid name. It still fails silently. I have a messagebox to signal that it's bad. So don't know Strange. It is really consistent over here - several users have seen it and in my own tests, I've tried to store on ext4 (/tmp), NFS4 ($HOME) and FAT32 (USB stick). No error messages in any of those cases. If you are aware of anything outside of Kontact that could prevent error messages from showing I'd be grateful for suggestions. I just ran strace against Kontact while trying to store "pgp?testmail.mbox" on a FAT32/VFAT-formatted USB-stick. In the strace, I can see plenty of lines like
lstat64("/media/36F3-0BF4/pgp?testmail.mbox", 0xbffdfabc) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
[...]
lstat64("/home/USER/.kde/share/apps/RecentDocuments/pgp?testmail.mbox.desktop", 0xbffdf9ec) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
[...]
unlink("/media/36F3-0BF4/pgp?testmail.mbox") = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("/media/36F3-0BF4/pgp?testmail.mbox", 0xbffe2008) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/media/36F3-0BF4/pgp?testmail.mbox", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_LARGEFILE|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
And thereafter no more mentioning of that file name. It looks as if the OS is indeed giving back the error, but KMail2 just does not do anything with it. If there is anything else you would like to test me specifically, please let me know.
I retested it and work fine. Ok for you in 4.9 ? wait for infos I'm now on Kubuntu 12.04/Kontact 4.8.4. This bug is still present - no error message, just silent fail (on a fresh install). Just did another test, this time with the KDE4.9.0 packages from the Kubuntu Backports PPA: In 4.9.0, the error message IS shown, apparently.
