Description Mathias Homann 2012-03-15 09:30:34 UTC
When I type a recipient email address when composing a mail, kmail only offers (autocompletes) addresses from the "recently used addresses" list, *not* from my address book(s).

Observed behavior / repro steps (happens every time):
1. Start composing a mail
2. Start entering an address
3. Observe how only email addresses from "Recently used" are offered by the autocompletion process

Expected behavior:
Addresses from "recently used" *and* addresses from all my configured address books are offered by autocompletion

I confirm this bug on Kubuntu 11.10 w backports ppa and on Kubuntu 12.40 Beta, both using KDE 4.8.1

I can also confirm it using Kubuntu 11.10 w backports ppa and an ownCloud DAV resource.

This seems to be a duplicate of bug #259949.
Comment 4 Mathias Homann 2012-04-05 12:19:41 UTC
Actually it isn't, #259949 is about only akonadi addressbooks being used.
This one is about akonadi addressbooks being NOT used.

I can confirm that KDE 4.8.3 is still affected this bug.
