Version: 1.8.2 (using KDE 3.4.2, Kubuntu Package 4:3.4.2-0ubuntu0hoary2 ) Compiler: gcc version 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-8ubuntu2) OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.10-5-k7 In some cases when answering a message just a section on incoming text in inserted in the edited message automatically prepared before edition ; abandoning edition by closing the message and trying again to re-edit the answer will eventually succeed in keeping the whole incoming message in the answer ! Of course selecting a section of the incoming message before editing the answer will properly result in editing this only section of text in the answer ! Hope I am clear in description of bug ! Regards.
If you mean that, even when you are sure nothing has been selected, replying to a message will not quote everything, then I can't confirm.
Yes I do confirm this bug that has been on for a while but not all the time !!
this bug still shows up ; to cure it just a click inside the window message to generate an answer will cure it !
I sometimes have this bug with KDE3.5.4 in Debian Sid. I am sure that I have not selected text in the original message that I am replying to. It only happens once in a while. Today I got an email which produced this behaviour, so I tried to save it as a text file and re-open it with File->Open. Pressing reply on the resulting email worked fine. Later today the same email does not produce the bug, however... Best regards Torquil M. Sørensen
This bug is still there when answering a message with latest KMail version. Regards.
If anyone can reproduce it with a current KDE version (4.3 ..), please reopen. I can not reproduce it here.
