           Summary: kmail not executing external program to notify about
                    email when path to program is absolute
           Product: kmail
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs kde org
        ReportedBy: bugs tjach pl


Version:            (using KDE 4.1.0)
Installed from:    Unlisted Binary Package

How to Reproduce:
1. Launch kmail, go to Settings -> Notify settings.
2. Insert an absolute path to program as an external notificator (not sure about the translation - I'm using polish version).
3. Recieve mail.

The external app is not executed. 

Workaround:
Add your application to $PATH or make a symlink in a directory listed in $PATH and use only the name of the application instead of the whole absolute path.
