Description C. Dominik Bódi 2016-05-29 14:55:03 UTC
kmail 5.2.1 (not available in the version dropdown menu?)

It seems that with recent versions of kmail, the default action when pressing the enter key changed from "ok" to "cancel".
This is really bad, especially when using the keyboard, as it destroys the quick very ergonomic workflow. Now I have to select the "ok" button with the mouse or use the tab key to select the "ok" button in order to complete moving the mail. Formerly, simply pressing enter moved the mail.

Please make kmail revert to the old behaviour, that pressing the enter key in the move mail dialog will actually move the mail. That way is much more ergonomic, particularly when using the keyboard instead of the mouse.

Regards,
C. Dominik Bódi

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select an email
2. press "m" key to open "move mail" dialog.
3. type a few keys to select the right target folder for the move.
4. press "enter" key to complete the move.
5. watch that dialog closes but mail does not get moved.
6. realize why this happens, cry
7. realize that no kmail developer will ever look at this bug report. cry even more.


Actual Results:  
Mail did not get moved

Expected Results:  
Mail should get moved to selected folder

The issue seems to have gone away with kmail from 16.04.02. Thanks
