Description Simon Hausmann 2004-01-06 00:51:32 UTC 
Version:           1.5.94 (using KDE 3.1.94 (CVS >= 20031206), compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.3 20031229 (prerelease) (Debian)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.6.0

Please take a look at the attached mbox containing a single mail (from aseigo on kfm-devel :) . If you import the mbox in kmail, select the mail, choose 'reply' you'll get a composer window containing only the 'on bleh joedoe wrote:' in the body but lacking the quoted content of the original mail.

This bug is caused by the Content-type of this message. It seems KMail doesn't handle application/pgp messages correctly when replying. After restoring the Old-Content-type (by deleting the Old-) and removing the wrong Content-type header replying works. For some reason some MTA (or was it mailman?) has changed the content-type.

improved summary
Comment 4 Jaime Torres 2008-09-09 17:09:47 UTC 
The message body is still blank when replaying (using the attached mail) in kmail 1.10.1.

Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report.

KMail2 was released in 2011, and the entire code base went through significant changes. We are currently in the process of porting to Qt5 and KF5. It is unlikely that these bugs are still valid in KMail2.

We welcome you to try out KMail 2 with the KDE 4.14 release and give your feedback.
