When I press "Del" key, I get the following error messages, even though I made sure the "Configure Shortcuts" dialog that there is a single action for the "Del" key. The key sequence 'Del' is ambiguous. Use 'Configure Shortcuts' from the 'Settings' menu to solve the ambiguity. No action will be triggered. My feeling is that there is a conflict with a global shortcut. I suggest to add to the error message the actual actions in conflict, which would simplify a lot the correction of the conflict. The looks like a reappearance of this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdepim/+bug/920270 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: press del key Actual Results: error message Expected Results: message should be moved to trash This is a Ubuntu precise 12.04.3 LTS with KDE 4.11.2 from Kubuntu's PPA. It is not a clean install, but I have not been using kmail/kontact on this computer since several years.
Created attachment 83009 [details] screenshot of the configure shortcuts dialog.
