Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.6) Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages I have been using pine as my primary mail client for a few years now, but I am using KMail for checking on a few of the less used accounts. I set the text width for both pine & KMail to 72 to allow inline answering without breaking lines for people reading on 80 space terminals. When I reply to a message written with text width 72 or above in pine, the text I am replying to in correctly indented. When I do the same with KMail, the text I am answering to is forced into a width of 72, creating line breaks and defeating the purpose of the text width. As a side note, a reformat option like vim's gggqG (just write a few long and short lines, :set tw=72 do gggqG) would be extremely helpful.
Changed this to a wish. If you set line break at 72, it will break at 72. Any additional behavior is another feature.
That depends on how you define the line break. Is it for all text or for the text you type? Especially seeing the way quoting in email works, I would assume only the latter can make sense. As I can not change its severity, I can only hope that the retagging does not make this issue disappear in the depth of
In light of the impeding KDE4 release, I am going through all bug reports I am involved in. To the best of my knowledge, this issue is still open.
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.
