Description idoa 2016-08-26 22:07:29 UTC
When composing a message, there's no reason I can think of one might want to use forward-slash key to activate the quicksearch popup, instead of typing the "/" character.
I couldn't find any means to configure this behavior, except in the KDE global keyboard shortcut settings - which doesn't seem to have any effect.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start a new message
2. Focus the editor pane
3. Press the "/" key

Actual Results:  
The quicksearch popup appears.

Expected Results:  
Insert the "/" character at cursor location.

plaintext or rich text setting makes no difference.

From "About":
Version 5.2.3
Using:
  KDE Frameworks 5.25.0
  Qt 5.7.0 (built against 5.7.0)
  The xcb windowing system

I don't know who add this shortcut for your kmail but by default we don't use it.
We use kde shortcut CTRL+F not /

OK, this entry was in ~/.config/kdeglobals, under "[Shortcuts]":
Find=\\

I have no idea why. It's inconsistent with what the GUI systemsettings shows.
Obviously not a kmail bug, then.

Thanks.

You just need to revert this shortcut.
I close it :)
