Description Mikolaj Machowski 2004-08-14 13:06:21 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc3.3.1 
OS:                Linux

When mailing photos from digikam and telling to attach comments in separate file comments.txt shows no comments for photos which have them
eg.
Comments for image "Grossman-p7200344_jpg.jpg": no comment

But this photo has comment (Digikam one, not exif/whatever).

Comment 2 Mikolaj Machowski 2004-09-06 23:30:59 UTC 
Still buggy, very buggy.

When I try to send another set of images with comments new comments
overwrites old comments.txt file but... not completely.

Eg. first comments.txt is 500B long. Second time I am sending only one
image with comment - in sum 100B. Plugin will overwrite those 100B but
the rest rests - file contain old, last 400B.

Also - may entries be separated with blank line?

TIA

This problem is not reproducible with current Send By Mail tool implemented in
digiKam core.
