Description Elias Probst 2005-12-30 21:34:16 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.0)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

Dragging a file to a "mailto:" link in the mailview should open a composer window including this file as attachment and as receiver the mail address it was dragged'n'dropped to.

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 2 Luigi Toscano 2012-08-19 00:37:32 UTC
Instead of creating a new feature request, please confirm here if the wishlist is still valid for kmail2.
Comment 3 Elias Probst 2012-08-19 12:11:57 UTC
Still valid for kmail2.

'Dragging a file to a "mailto:" link in the mailview should open a composer window including this file as attachment and as receiver the mail address it was dragged'n'dropped to.' could you explain more please ?
Could you give me a test case ?
Move from which application, go to ... ? composer ? etc.

Now after 9 years, I don't think anymore that this makes really sense from a UX POV… feel free to close as WONTFIX :)

Just for the sake of completeness:
I think I wanted any appearance of a mailaddress (e.g. in the header of a mail view) to act as a drop target to which files could be dropped to.
The resulting action would open a new composer with 'To:' set to the address where the file was dropped to and the file(s) added as attachment.
