Bug ID: 360963
Summary: Select identity and "From" automatically on reply in
dependence of the answered mail.
Product: kmail2
Version: 5.1
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Kmail allows to configure identities with one mailbox address
([email protected]) and several aliases ([email protected], [email protected],
[email protected]). It even allows wildcards (lists-*@some.domain),
what is really great as MTAs can be configured to allow regex or catchall
aliases, too (To: [email protected], Delivered-To: [email protected])
Unfortunately kmail ignores everything on replying (or forwarding) a mail.
It always selects the identity that is configured in the folder properties and
uses always the mailbox address. (I receive a mail at [email protected] and kmail
wants to reply from [email protected])
I can change the "From" header manually to match the "To" header of the
answered mail (from [email protected] to [email protected]), but I think the
intention of email identities and aliases is to do that automatically.
It is even worse if there is a common inbox for different providers, as kmail
wants to answer mails to [email protected] with [email protected]
(different identity and totally different address).
The latter is a privacy issue as you can easily use the wrong email address.
Reproducible: Always
Expected Results:
Kmail should select the "From" header with the associated identity
automatically to match the "To" header of the replied mail.
