Version: 1.9.10 (using KDE 1.2) OS: Linux Noticed that Kmail sends an MDN (message disposition notification) to originator automatically when filtering a message that it then (correctly) forwards to another user. The original email does NOT contain a request for an MDN. Kmail does not ask if it shoudl send the MDN. My MDN policy setting is "ASK" under the <settings><configure-kmail> menu, security <reading> sub-tab and also quote-original-message="nothing" and 'do NOT send MDNs in repsonse to encrypted messages' is checked.(not that any of my email is encrypted) Problem noticed mostly with email from mailing lists where the MDN then bounces back from a non-existent return address. Used to also occur with some spam from a previous ISP's email feed with local postfix, now I pick up from remote IMAP with kmail ONLY so I don't have any local logs unless kmail has some somewhere. I have noticed the problem for a long time, just never got around to reporting it. It has certainly been present since suse10.x versions and occurs with both POP and IMAP accounts setup: KMAIL 1.9.10 Kontact 1.2.9 KDE 3.5.10 release 21.13.1 opensuse 11.1 (x86_64) Linux 2.6.27.56-0.1-default x86_64 filter setup: match all of following from contains sendername subject contains keyword redirect to user@mydomain.co.uk Reproducible: Didn't try
Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report. KMail2 was released in 2011, and the entire code base went through significant changes. We are currently in the process of porting to Qt5 and KF5. It is unlikely that these bugs are still valid in KMail2. We welcome you to try out KMail 2 with the KDE 4.14 release and give your feedback.
