Description Hans-Peter Jansen 2013-02-13 10:22:02 UTC 
When replying with the option "signature above quoted text", the cursor was moved initially on top of the inserted signature in older kmail versions. With current 4.9.5, the cursor is always located at the end of the quoted text.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start kmail
2. enable "signature before quoted text"
3. reply to a mail
Actual Results:  
cursor at the end of the quoted text

Expected Results:  
cursor at the start of the signature

TOFU mails suck of course, but its a necessity in today's standard business mails unfortunately. 
Always needing to scroll to the beginning of the reply, when using kmail sucks even more.

Not sure if this is the identical problem, but sometimes the cursor on the reply email is at the end of the email even with "signature at the bottom". I've noticed that this happens occasionally, especially on the second message I send with a different identity. (I.e., works fine in the message where I change the identity, but then when I reply to the next message, the cursor isn't in the right place.) Using version 4.9.5 here.

I can confirm for KMail 4.10.0.
Comment 3 frenchtoratora 2013-04-02 09:41:51 UTC 
I can confirm for KMail 4.9.5 on kubuntu 12.10.

This appears to be fixed in 4.10.1.

resolving due to comment 4.

feel free to re-open if this happens in version 4.10.1 or above
