Description rpramod 2002-12-31 04:31:30 UTC

Version:           1.4.3 (using KDE 3.0.3)
Installed from:    Mandrake Linux Cooker i586 - Cooker
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2 (Mandrake Linux 9.0 3.2-1mdk)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.19-16mdk

While I know filters can accomplish this, it would be easier for users if the profiles can be made to bind to certain outgoing addresses. For eg, I want a@f.net to be used, only for certain outgoing addresses, This is mainly to avoid sending the mail by mistake with the wrong identity, which has happened a lot many times.  It would also be great, if kmail remembers the profile used for an outgoing addresss.

You can define the identity per folder. When you create a new message 
the identity which is associated with the currently selected folder is 
used.

Filters can't be used for this because the filters are applied _after_ 
the message has been sent.

Well, I didn't close your feature wish, did I? I just mentioned a 
possible work around.

I want to present another example of needity such feature for KMail. I use Linux
in corporate environment and prefer KDE as Desktop for my PC. The KMail is my
favorite e-mail client. In our corporate network we use only signed messages but
for some of my external correspondents I don't want to use crypto. I would like
to see in KMail feature for binding some profile, which one has contain my
GPG-signature, with list of e-mail addresses.

Instead of adding a comment, you should vote on the bug.

Comment 12 EssL 2011-02-02 23:08:53 UTC

I think this supposed to be the point of "activities" in the future... But it won't solve this cause I won't switch activities just to send an email from another account :/

Comment 13 Myriam Schweingruber 2012-08-18 08:01:29 UTC

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.

Comment 14 Luigi Toscano 2012-08-19 01:06:37 UTC

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

Comment 15 EssL 2012-08-19 11:42:21 UTC

Yep, still valid... I think...

> Yep, still valid... I think...

Erm, you think or did you test?

Comment 17 EssL 2012-08-19 14:19:39 UTC

Don't think it was implemented, don't have access to kmail right now, can't test...
