(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***) Package: Version: Severity: normal Installed from: Compiler: OS: OS/Compiler notes: The default ispell spellchecker when invoked from Edit | Spellchecker does not check the subject line for typos. Tested with some known misspelled (nonsense) words in body and subject line. The spellchecker detected the one in the body but didn't look at the subject line regardless of cursor position when I invoked the spellchecker from the menu. The behavior seems easily reproducible regardless of composing a new message replying forwarding. Misspellings in a signature file are detected. Could not see a way to direct the spellchecker at header fields. The expected behavior would check the subject line possibly user-specified (Which headers to spellcheck? ... a b c..) or by default (simply check the subject line regardless of user preference). Hope this bug report is good enough! (Submitted via bugs.kde.org)
Just noticed the original bug report somehow missed out on some info=20 supplied by the "Submit a bug" feature- I believe due to session time out. Here's some relevant info from the report bug dialog box: Version:Kmail version 1.4 (KDE 2.99 (#.0 rc3)) (Red Hate Linux 7.2.92) OS:Linux (i686) release 2.2.16-22 Compiler:gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.2 2.96-107) Also:Installed KDE from RH RPMs Hope this helps. Mischa.
Still exists in Kmail 1.5 (Using KDE 3.1-9.4.7.3). Hope this helps. Mischa.
Subject: Re: kmail should also check the spelling of the subject This has finally been implemented for KDE 3.2 a few days ago.
Problem returned in 1.13.7 (and earlier?) [And subject line should really auto-spellcheck, bug #129926]
KMail 1.13.x is not maintained anymore and mispelled words are underlined in kmail2.
I have now tried to surf pages related to kmail. Nowere I can see mentions that kmail2 is even released.. And the 1.13.7 version is what I get with OpenSuSE 11.4 (Tumbleweed) with KDE 4.6.5 Confused...
