Description Paul Brown 2018-12-09 19:21:10 UTC
SUMMARY

In the "Folder Properties" > "General" tab, the "Sender identity" reverts to the default identity every time you restart the application.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Select for a folder a different identity from the default in "Sender Identity"
2. Close Kmail/Kontact
3. Start Kmail/Kontact again and the "Sender identity" has changed back to the default one.

EXPECTED RESULT

That the "Sender Identity" not change from one run to the next.


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Kmail: 5.9.3
KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.52.0
Qt Version: 5.11.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This doesn't happen consistently across all accounts. Only on folders linked to some IMAP accounts.

I can't reproduce with these steps. After reopening KMail, the selected identity is still there.

Yes, it is tricky as it only happens on certain accounts. I have three IMAP accounts: one on Kolab Now, the second on GMX and the third on a private server of a company. The default identity is the Kolab Now and the one affected by the bug is the GMX. I was hoping someone could advise me on more diagnostic actions I could carry out to narrow it down.

Thanks.
