Description Jesse Guardiani 2004-01-30 23:32:55 UTC
Version:           0.7.2 (using KDE KDE 3.1.4)
Installed from:    FreeBSD Ports
Compiler:          gcc (GCC) 3.3.3 [FreeBSD] 20031106 
OS:          FreeBSD

Followup-To: and Groups: headers are NOT changed OR saved if they are modified once a message has been inserted into the Outbox.

How to reproduce?

1.) Reply to a message on GMane (www.gmane.org) that is cross-posted (this will auto set TWO groups in the Groups: field and at least one group in the Followup-To: field.

2.) Message will get stuck in Outbox because there is a bug in GMane's version of INN that doesn't allow Followup-To: headers. It will say that you are not allowed to approve postings.

3.) Try to remove all but one group from the Groups: field and remove everything from the Followup-To: field.

4.) Send the message. It will give the same error.

5.) Exit KNode

6.) Open the Outbox_mbox file in .kde/share/apps/knode or whatever with your favorite text editor (VIM in my case). You will notice that the Groups: header and Followup-To: header have NOT changed.

The expected behavior would have been that KNode would correctly modify the Groups: and Followup-To: headers before sending the message, and if it can't send the message it should save the new settings to the Outbox_mbox file.

Thanks!

As far as I can tell, this bug is still valid for KNode 0.7.7 (KDE 3.2.2). (I'm using Linux.)

Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been unmaintained for many years so I am closing this bug.
