           Summary: do not close draft when saving it
           Product: kmail
           Version: 1.13.5
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: composer
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs@kde.org
        ReportedBy: nisa...@gmail.com


Version:           1.13.5 (using KDE 4.6.2) 
OS:                Linux

when i save a draft in Kmail, the composer saves the draft and closes.  i know
of no other editing application that closes documents when you save them (at
least not by default).

more often than not (probably about 90% of the time for me), when i save a
draft, i'm saving it with the intention of continuing to edit it. with the
current behavior, i must immediately browse to my Drafts folder to re-open the
draft.  interestingly, if i then immediately close the message, the draft
continues to be saved.  so Kmail is clearly capable of distinguishing between
"save draft" and "close draft", but for some reason it couples the "close
draft" action to the "save draft" UI command.  if i really wanted to save and
close, i could easily close the composer with Ctrl+W, Alt+F4, clicking the
Close button, or File -> Close.

please fix this behavior.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. compose a message.
2. File -> Save as Draft.

Actual Results:  
draft is saved and closed.

Expected Results:  
draft is saved and remains open.
