Version: 2.0.89 (using KDE 4.5.95) OS: Linux When sort order is set to "By Date/Time" and direction to "Least Recent on Top", one has to scroll down over all the messages every time a folder is open. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set sort order to "By Date/Time" and direction to "Least Recent on Top" 2. Select a folder Actual Results: The start of the message list is shown Expected Results: The end of the message list should be shown, i.e. the most recent message should be available with no need to scroll for it. OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.36-gentoo-r5 Compiler: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc
Seconded. This bug is super annoying. Also, this is somewhat of a regression from Kmail 1 series, where the message list was at least focused on the last message selected in the folder. In Kmail 2 the last selected message is not remembered between folder changes. IMHO a preferable fix would be one, which would implement both things. I.e. when opening the message list of a mail folder: - Scroll to the message that was selected when the user last switched away from the folder - If such a message is not found (no message has ever been selected, or knowledge of the selected message has disappeared) scroll to show the latest e-mails in the folder Also running Kmail 2.0.89 on KDE 4.6.0
There is also a problem when you actually scroll to the end of the list and then delete/move to other folder the last message and the list loses focus - it then jumps back to the beginning instead of staying at the bottom. It's really annoing and one of the regressions from old kmail.
