Description B T Damman 2001-10-01 18:36:30 UTC
(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package:           kmail
Version:           KDE 2.9.0 CVS/CVSup/Snapshot
Severity:          wishlist
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          Not Specified
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

I suspect that KMail when filtering using a regular expression uses case insensitive regular expression because a subject filter ^[A-Z]+$ also acts on the subject 'test'.

It would be nice if it was possible have an option for case sensitve matching.

Can confirm on latest cvs head.
Comment 2 Björn Ruberg 2009-12-13 01:22:35 UTC
This is a valid wish - but I would not implement it without a good idea of adding no further clutter to the UI.

Thank you for your feature request. Kmail1 is currently unmaintained so we are closing all wishes. Please feel free to reopen a feature request for Kmail2 if it has not already been implemented.
Thank you for your understanding.

Instead of creating a new feature request, please confirm here if the wishlist is still valid for kmail2.
