I set up custom templates for an identity in KMail by going to Setting/Configure_Kmail/Identities configuration dialog box and choosing Templates tab. Here I enable 'Use custom message templates for this identity' option and set up the following template for New messages: %REM="Default new message template"%- Hi %TOLNAME, %BLANK %CURSOR %BLANK %SIGNATURE Then I compose a new message with this identity and choose a recipient, the last name of the recipient doesn't appear after 'Hi' in the message body. The cursor also stands at a wrong position (after the signature). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set up a custom New message template to an identity using . 2. Try to compose a new message using this identity. Actual Results: Neighter the lastname of 'to' field nor the cursor aren't displayed in the correct position. Expected Results: Lastname and cursor should be at the right place according to the template.
normal it's new message => template doesn't know "to" before to create it.
(In reply to comment #1) > normal it's new message > => template doesn't know "to" before to create it. You're right, the "name inserting" issue should be a wish instead. But cursor position is not at the right place, so this bug needs to be reopened.
