(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***) Package: kmail Version: 1.1.99 (KDE 2.0) Severity: grave Compiler: gcc version 2.95.2 19991024 (release) OS: Linux 2.2.16 i686 (compiled sources) Replying to a html mail quotes the html source in the new mail. This is not usable at all. Problem is the same as the already reproted problem with forwarding a html mail.

I suspect that the new KMMessage and KMMessagePart implementations have fixed this by coincidence. You can try the patch at http://www.staikos.on.ca/~staikos/kmmsg/ against the latest cvs code if you like. I don't use HTML email anywhere but if you forward one to gs@0wned.org I can test the patch myself too. -- George Staikos
At least with the current CVS version if you select the text of the message before hitting reply the html formatting is stripped out. -- Richard Fish Unix/Linux Software Engineer rjf@fishcode.org
finally fixed
This has reappeared in KMail 1.5 (KDE 3.1.0)
