           Summary: Drag+drop URLs from messages with attachments in IMAP
                    folder doesn't work
           Product: kmail
           Version: 1.9.6
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs kde org
        ReportedBy: isj-bugzilla i1 dk


Version:           1.9.6 (using KDE 3.5.7)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

Environment:
- IMAP INBOX folder.
- Folder set to prefer prefer text over html (configuration does not seem to matter though).
- Message with text/plain and text/html and attachment.

kmail correctly discovers the URL and presents it as clickable/draggable.
Dragging the URL with the mouse does not work. The mouse pointer changes shape over the URL, but dragging (left-button-down) does not "pick up" the URL.

Right-click + "copy link address" works.
Marking (selection) + middle-button-pasting works.
mailto: URLs do not work either.

This behaviour only occurs with the following mime structure in the mail:
  * multipart/mixed
    - multipart/alternative
      . tetx/plain
      . text/html
    - image/png   (or any other type of file)
In other words: a MIME email with text, html and an attachment.

It does /not/ occur with using simple-part messages with text/plain, or multipart/alternative text+html. Only when attachments are present does the drag+drop stop working.

Please note that it is not the attachment that I am trying to drag (other bugs are reported on that). I am trying to drag a URL inside a MIME part.
