Version: 1.11.1 (using 4.2.1 (KDE 4.2.1) "release 108", KDE:KDE4:Factory:Desktop / openSUSE_11.1) Compiler: gcc OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.27.19-3.2-default It would be interesting to to fake bounced emails in Kmail as if the email was sent to an incorrect email address, as a anti-spam measure, or if someone gets your email address and you didn't want them to have it. Of course the effectiveness of such features depends on if the from header is correct or not which makes it less affective as a anti-spam measure, but still useful if you don't want someone to have your email address.
I need such functionality. It exists on Apple's Mac Mail. http://hubpages.com/hub/How-To-Bounce-Email-in-Mail Apparently it existed in an earlier version of Kmail and was removed because the technical anti-spam measures got better. http://fixunix.com/kde/92958-kmail-what-happened-bounce.html Please re-introduce this functionality. Has nothing to do with fighting spam on a technical level but would be useful. No judgment as for the reason why people would use it. In my case is for what I consider spammed connection requests from Facebook or LinkedIn which I do not blame on those two websites but on the spammers using them. I still want to receive those mails selectively and no technical tool can do (or will be ever able to do) the vetting between spam and non-spam for me. Or othewise stated: spam is in the eyes of the beholder.
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.
