While composing a message, if you open the settings (Menu Settings>Configure KMail), and then close the settings window, the dictionary language of the message is changed to the default. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start composing a message 2. (If the dictionary row is not shown, make it visible.) 3. Change the dictionary language to something else. 4. Open Configuration settings (Menu Settings, KMail configuration) 5. Close settings window with OK. Actual Results: The dictionary language is changed in the new message window. Expected Results: Nothing in the new message window should change.
I confirm it. We must update composer when we change config. In code we can't know if identity changed.
This bug has only been reported for versions before 4.14, which have been unsupported for at least two years now. Can anyone tell if this bug still present? If noone confirms this bug for a Framework-based version of kmail2 (version 5.0 or later, as part of KDE Applications 15.12 or later), it gets closed in about three months.
Just as announced in my last comment, I close this bug. If you encounter it again in a recent version (at least 5.0 aka 15.08), please open a new one unless it already exists. Thank you for all your input.
