ria...@yahoo.com changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |ria...@yahoo.com --- Comment #10 from ria...@yahoo.com --- Using Kontact 4.4.11 with KMail 1.13.7 with KDE 4.8.4 on Debian unstable. I thought I had this bug too, but that does not appear to be the case after all. However, there are some confusing things in KMail which I suspect are making it seem like this bug is present. Note that I could send my mail from the correct address when holding the Send button and selecting the correct SMTP account, even when using the same identity. There are two confusing things here that make it seem like this is not working correctly: 1. The sent mail is stored in a sent-mail folder which is defined in the identity settings. This means that the same folder will be used for all sent mail, regardless of which SMTP account is used. It might be more useful to copy this setting to the SMTP account's settings so it can be different for each account (using the identity's setting as fallback option). This assumes that identities are used to represent people, who can have different accounts which are shown separately. 2. Perhaps this is the more likely culprit for making it seem like this bug is present. When you view the sent mails in KMail, it always displays the identity in the "From" field, with the email address filled in in the identity's settings. However, if you view the source email you'll see the header parameter X-KMail-Transport which does show which SMTP account was used. It would be less confusing if the "From" field showed the identity's name but with the SMTP account name (which would be the same as the X-KMail-Transport value) after it instead of the standard email address. Ideally, you'd want it to show the email address corresponding with that SMTP account, if possible. Aside from removing false positive reproduction of this bug, changing this behaviour would also improve usability quite a bit. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Kdepim-bugs mailing list Kdepim-bugs@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kdepim-bugs
