Version: 1.11.2 (using KDE 4.2.2) OS: Linux Installed from: Ubuntu Packages Kmail has the option to save replies to messages in the same folder, in order to keep email ordered nicely in conext. The option to save a copy of (origianly) sent message in the current folder would complement it. The workflow when you want to write to A_contact might look like this: 1) You go into the folder where your filters move all the messages that go "FROM: A_contact TO: your_account". (You might be looking what was up last time.) 2) You press the "new" button to compose a message. 3) Kmail could automatically fill the To: field with the A_contact. Similar as with mailinglists, this could be specified as a folder preference.(complementing wish) 4) The sent message gets automaticaly saved in the current folder. (This might be specified globaly or as folder preference?) -> The folder will hold your full communication with A_contact nicely treaded.
The complementig wish "option to assign contacts/email-adresses to folders" now has Bug #193788.
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.
thanks! yes, I find this necessary to coming back to kmail
Actually, if there is only a single recipient, saving the email sent in the folder that has the receipient associated with it (Bug# 193788) would be even better. (less chance to save in an arbitrary selected folder)
