Version: 1.9.10 (using 3.5.10, Kubuntu (hardy) 4:3.5.10-0ubuntu1~hardy1.3) Compiler: Target: i486-linux-gnu OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.24-24-generic Whilst dragging an email from inbox to another folder, a new email arrived in the inbox. The email that was moved was not the one dragged but the one above it. This is what you would expect if you had taken the dragged email's position in the list at the start of the drag instead of the end.
never happend to me. Can you reproduce the problem?
The behaviour is always as stated above, but timing is critical - you must start a drag in your inbox before new emails arrive and must be still dragging when the inbox is updated with new messages. I'll bet you a beer that the fix is to get the selected message positions when the drag ends rather than when it starts.
Interesting. But you are reporting against KDE 3.5.10. Tested in KDE 4.4.0 and it works there.
