Version: 1.9.1 (using KDE KDE 3.5.1) Installed from: Gentoo Packages OS: Linux When sending a mail to multiple receivers, if you do not use the correct separator(,) then a bad error message is produced: "The email address you entered is not valid because it contains more than one @. You will not create valid messages if you do not change your address." Instead of the complete weirdness of the second sentence, it would be much more helpful to say what the address separator is. It would be even more useful if multiple separators were recognized. The best solution would be if each space delineated word containing an '@' would be interpreted as an address
I have looked at the code, and separators other than space look easy to implement. The complexity of space stems from the fact that you can write things like: First Last <first.last@foo.com> first.last@foo.com (First Last) first.last@foo.com "First Last" all of which denote a single recipient, and complicate parsing. I will try to have a go at it if I have time, and it is OK to modify the relevant function. As for the error message, you are right that it doesn't make much sense. Nevertheless KDE 3.5.2 is in string freeze, so clarification can be done for 3.5.3 at best.
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.
Instead of creating a new feature request, please confirm here if the wishlist is still valid for kmail2.
