Description Peter Humphrey 2018-09-27 15:08:54 UTC 
SUMMARY
KMail2-5.9.1 spelling uses wrong dictionary in Subject field

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open the composer
2. Write a Subject
3. If a word is spelt other than in US English, it's highlighted.

OBSERVED RESULT

"Behaviour" is correct in British English, which is selected in all my profiles, but it's highlighted in the Subject field.

EXPECTED RESULT

"Behaviour" should not be highlighted in the Subject, because I have British English selected.

SOFTWARE VERSIONS
See below:

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Whether the subject should be spell-checked at all is debatable, but if it is it should use the same dictionary as the body.
