Version: unspecified (using Devel) OS: Linux Wordwrap functionality allow the user to type more than 80 characters per line. However, sending an email not using the wordwrap functionality allows the user to type longuer lines (ex: sending a log or a patch) But it is impossible to extend the sent text further than it already is. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: - Launch Kmail - Click on 'New' - Go to Options menu/Wordwrap (uncheck it) - Reduce the size of the 'Composer' dialogue by half - Fill in the recipient (yourself), the subject and enter two lines of text without pressing enter (the text goes automatically to the next line) - Click on 'Send' - Open the email - Reenlarge the window to its normal width Actual Results: The text is still displayed on only to lines whereas there is blank at the end of both lines. Expected Results: The text should be moved to one full line and maybe at the beginning of the second depending on the screen's size. Trunk, Svn Rev 1129830 The opposite works fine: If the text is sent with a large window width then reducing its size works (they are more lines displayed). So it would make sense if enlarging the lines worked too.

SVN commit 1155011 by lfranchi: Use proper check for whether or not to linewrap. BUG: 219572 BUG: 238629 M +1 -1 textedit.cpp WebSVN link: http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=1155011
Created attachment 49659 [details] The lines are received on three lines exactely as they were typed on the composer whereas there are less than 80 characters on each lines. Trunk, Svn Rev 1156856
I could not reproduce the error following the last set of steps provided, using KMail 4.9.1. Can anyone else confirm this is now working? When writting the email, lines are not wrapped at all — Not even visually. And once I get back the email, only the line breaks I introduced manually are there.
Closing for now, please feel free to reopen if you can reproduce this with KDE 4.9.1 or later.
