           Summary: KMail adds text typed after adding a link to the link
                    name
           Product: kmail
           Version: 1.13.5
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: composer
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: ricardo at devius.net


Version:           1.13.5 (using KDE 4.5.3) 
OS:                Linux

When I create a link in kmail by selecting a piece of text and clicking the
link button, somehow the anchor tag isn't closed, so (infuriatingly) everything
I type after that gets added to the link name. If I select only the portion of
text that I want to serve as link name, then kmail automatically (and to my
great frustration and extreme brain swelling anger) selects ALL the text that
it thinks is the link name (all the text that is effectively and wrongly
linked) before opening the dialog window to edit the link. The only way to add
two consecutive links to different locations is to first type all the email
including all the links and only then add the relevant links.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add text that you want to use as link name
2. Create the link
3. Write some more text after that

Actual Results:  
Everything typed (step 3 above) after adding the link (step 2) gets added to
the link name.

Expected Results:  
The link name is correctly enclosed by the anchor tags and I'm able to add text
after this link without it being added to the link name
