Description Gunter Ohrner 2015-05-07 12:26:51 UTC 
(Noticed in kMail 4.14.7, but this version cannot be selected above.)

Maybe that was an intentional change, but i removed quite a useful feature:

File->New does not allow to open additional main windows any more. This must have been removed in the 4.14.x series.

I did not use this feature often, but from time to time it was extremely useful and helpful and a real time and brain saver.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open kMail
2. Select "File->New"


Actual Results:  
No "Open new main window" menu entry appears.

Expected Results:  
An "Open new main window" menu entry appears as in previous kMail 4.14.x releases, which allows to open a full second main window.

Yep it was expected because created a lot of sync problem between several view.
So It's not a bug.
