Description Roman Fietze 2016-01-31 13:38:24 UTC 
Since the update to kdepim 15.x I can no longer use a properly working postfix installation and the binary "sendmail".

This has the disadvantage to be forced to configure postfaix *and* kmail2's SMTP in parallel, or to enable SMTP on the local postfix installation.



Reproducible: Always


Actual Results:  
"Failed to transport message".



kmail2 5.1.1
kdepim 15.12.1
openSUSE Tumbleweed
postfix 2.11.7, properly working on the command line (mail) and with other MUAs

Indeed we removed sendmail support in kf5.
Comment 2 roucaries 2017-02-27 12:40:44 UTC 
Why it was removed ? Could be possible to help to get it ? 

Where should I add code ?

The error message seen by users who upgrade is pretty unhelpful.  Could you at least change the error message so that it informs the user that sendmail support has been removed?
