You always have to manually change to the To: field, if permanent CC/BCC is used in the default identity. That's a little annoying. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set-up the default identity with a permanent CC/BCC address for new e-mails -> Edit Identity | Advanced | BCC addresses = my.address@provider.com 2. Create a new e-mail, e.g. Ctrl+N Actual Results: Cursor is placed in the BCC: field at the begin of "my.address@provider.com" Expected Results: Cursor should be placed in the To: field to select the real recipient. Works as well if a permanent CC is selected. If the identity is changed in advance in the composer, kmail shows the better behavior, i.e. the cursor is placed inside the To: field.
Just tested and this now works as expected :)
