Description MikeC 2013-10-18 21:17:51 UTC
Setup two accounts and two identities. Select a default identity and transport. Now check the second account and its folders - when looking at the folder properties in the non-default account such as the Inbox the Sender identity is the default instead of the second one defined. If it is changed and Kmail restarted then the previous selection is reverted again to the incorrect default Sender identity. If a mail is composed and sent from the non-default account/identity then the default identity and transport are used incorrectly.  The selection of the second identity and transport to be used for the non-default account should be allowed to be made permanent.

If during a mail compose the identity and transport are set as in view then the non-default choices can be selected and the mail will then send correctly - but these selections cannot be made permanent.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set up two accounts and two identities
2. Select the non-default account - check the folder properties in the Inbox and all other folders - they are wrongly given the default values.
3. Compose an email and make the identity and transport in view. The incorrect default identity and transport are seen - they can be changed but only during sending a single mail.
Actual Results:  
Wrong (default) identity and transport selected for the non-default account when composing an email.

Expected Results:  
Each account should use the correct identity and transport when composing an email. From the default account it should be the default identity and transport, and the non-default used when sending from the non-default account.

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.
