Version: 2.1.1 (using KDE 4.6.5) OS: Linux If I try to send an e-mail to a mailing list (which is available with all containing recipients in the addressbook) kmail always tries to send it to <listname>@<local-hostname> instead of replacing the mailing-list-name with the addresses of the recipients. I've also had this problem in recent versions of kmail and I can't believe that it's still there!! In my oppinion, sending mails to mailing lists is one of the basic and expected funcionalities of an e-mail client. So this bug should be fixed as soon as possible!!! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: - create a new Group in the addressbook (or start to write a new mail, select all recipients and click on "save list") - open the composer to write a new mail - select the created mailing list as the recipient in the "To"-field - send it (this will fail) Actual Results: Recipient is <listname>@<local-hostname> Expected Results: The addresses of all recipients from the mailing list
Can't reproduce it with master. Could you update it ? Regards

But there's a small problem if I start to write an e-mail to a mailing list, save it as a draft and reopen it for editing again: If the contact name of a recipient from the list contains a comma in the name (e.g. "<lastname>, <firstname>") there is always a "To"-field containing only the lastname of the contact. So the composer starts a new line (in this case a new "To"-field) when a "," appears in the contact's name.

But this only happend, because the contacts were taken from my old addressbook where I saved them as "<name>, <firstname>". I deleted that addressbook-folder and now everything works fine. Thanks!
I can confirm the behavior from Fabian. The same here. I also imported my abook from the old version to the new version. But in my opinion, it cannot be, that I have to delete the abook and regenerate it, so that it works. What is so difficult with that? Kind regards!
