When KMail composes an HTML reply to a message, it also sends a plain-text version (as it should). In this version, quoting is broken. This matters mostly in two scenarios: 1) Mailing lists and their archives 2) A two-way exchange, when I prefer plaintext. Even if I "reply using HTML if present", I still see incoming messages first as plaintext. So if the plaintext in my reply to them has broken quoting, I will see broken quoting in their next reply to me. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 0. In Composer, set "options->Formatting(HTML)" to on -- or check the configuration option "reply using HTML if present" 1. Reply using HTML, quoting the original message 2. Open your reply message, and look at its plaintext version Actual Results: Missing any quotation mark, except for a header "This and that said". If replies are interweaved with original text, no way to tell which is which. Expected Results: Quotation marks (">" or whatever the quote mark is) on quoted lines. This may or may not be a duplicate of #321424 -- I cannot be sure what, exactly is reported there. #316917 and #317227 are related.
