Description Daniel O'Connor 2009-03-08 08:06:20 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.1.4)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

The tab size in the kmail composer is 4 rather than the expected 8.

I am pretty sure this is a regression from KDE3.
Comment 1 José Manuel Santamaría Lema 2009-03-15 18:22:13 UTC 
I can reproduce it with kmail 1.11.1, KDE 4.2.1 installed from debian experimental packages:
$ apt-show-versions kdepim
kdepim/experimental uptodate 4:4.2.1-1

I just click on "new message button" and typed some text with tabs. For me, with fixed font ("View -> Use Fixed Font" in the editor) the tabs' width is the same of 4 spaces and a half.

Also, I can't see any option to choose the tab width in "Settings -> Configure Kmail -> Composer".
Comment 2 Martin Koller 2009-09-28 22:16:08 UTC 
Defining the Tab size is a wish.
Comment 3 Artem Anisimov 2010-03-09 13:22:38 UTC 
I'd also like to see tab width made configurable not only in composer, but in the message viewer too.
Comment 4 Myriam Schweingruber 2012-08-18 08:04:20 UTC 
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.
