Bug ID: 320021
Summary: kaddressbook loses case of email local part when
importing from vCard file
Classification: Unclassified
Product: kaddressbook
Version: 4.10
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
When importing an address from a vCard file, the email address is converted to
lower case. This is wrong for several reasons:
- The local part of an email is case sensitive, so by converting to lower case,
email might be sent to the wrong address.
- It makes it harder to see if the import was correct (by exporting the
imported file and checking for diffs)
- It makes CamelCase email addresses harder to read.
Note that the domain part of an email address is case insensitive, so it may be
converted to lower case. However, it seems easier to just leave the address as
is.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create vCard file with MixedCase email address
2. Add vCard file to KAddressBook
Actual Results:
Email is displayed in KAddressBook in lower case
Expected Results:
Email is displayed as entered into the vCard file
