can confirm that; still impossible to print more than one message in one go, in kmail 1.5.4.

Does it mean it's technically impossible?
Comment 12 Laurent Montel 2011-11-24 14:17:27 UTC
yes if we must do we must fork webkit paint function.
Comment 13 Torgny Nyblom 2011-12-09 18:37:37 UTC
We discussed a possible solution on IRC today.

The idea is to join the mails in a single html page using iframes or something and then print this resulting "multi mail".

Great!
Comment 15 a_vince 2011-12-10 11:52:46 UTC
In the particular case of a single thread, the workaround I'm using right now (when it's absolutely necessary to print a long discussion via e-mail) is to forward to myself the full thread as a "digest", and then print that mail with the attachment.  I do get of course an annoying "dummy" first mail in the printout.
But I suppose that's a kludge somewhat resembling the idea you are working on.
Thanks for discussing this issue!
