Bug ID: 439786
Summary: Folder default identity does not obey account default
identity
Product: kmail2
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: folders
Assignee: kdepim-b...@kde.org
Reporter: thi...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
The default email identity in any given folder in an IMAP account should be the
identity selected in that IMAP account's configuration. But it's not, it is
defaulting back to the global default.
The same KMail version has no problem on an older installation. So there must
be some hidden configuration somewhere that is preventing this from taking
effect. This is either an UX issue or a bug somewhere.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add at least two email identities (KMail Settings > Accounts > Identities)
2. Add a new IMAP account, with an account default identity different from the
global default identity
3. Go to the new account's Inbox folder and create new email
OBSERVED RESULT
The new email's identity is the global default identity. If you check the
folder's properties, you will see that "Use default identity" is checked but
the selected identity is not the one from the account, but the global default.
EXPECTED RESULT
The new email should be using the per-account identity. The folder dialog
should be showing that account with the "Use default identity" checked.
