Description Brian 2010-05-30 18:39:53 UTC
Version:           1.13.3 (using KDE 4.4.3) 
OS:                Linux

When replying to a message with signatures enabled, the signature is placed above quoted text.  Kmail should be intelligent enough to place signatures below quoted text.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Ensure that "use signature" is enabled
Open an email
Highlight some text
Click reply

Actual Results:  
Signature is placed above the quoted text

Expected Results:  
One or more blank lines and the signature should have been placed below the quoted text.

Currently, the only workaround is to use custom templates, however this fails when top posting is expected.  Kmail should be be smart enough to recognize when bottom posting is appropriate, as in the case of selectively quoting a prior email.

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.
