Description Leo Savernik 2004-08-20 00:39:22 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.3.0)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources

In KDE 3.2, when using new mail to mailing-list, KMail used to focus the "Subject" field regardless of "To" being prefilled or not.

In KDE 3.3 we have the opposite problem:
KMail focuses the "To" field, whether prefilled or not.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Invoke "New mail to mailing-list" in a folder that has a mailing-list-address associated with it.

Expected results:
Mailing-list address is prefilled into the "To" field.
Focus is set to "Subject" field.

Actual results:
Mailing-list address is prefilled into the "To" field.
Focus is set to "To" field such that the caret is located after the prefilled address.

I think it should only set the focus to the "To" field if it's empty, otherwise to the "Subject" field.

This is a duplicate of #69438 which is marked as resolved, reopen #69438?
Comment 2 Leo Savernik 2004-08-20 11:22:06 UTC 
No, this is no dupe. It's just the opposite wrongness described in bug 69438.

While in 69438 the focus was set to "Subject" unconditionally, in this bug it is set to "To" unconditionally.
