           Summary: truncate addresses when too many
           Product: kmail
           Version: 1.11.0
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: ylevinsen at yahoo.no


Version:           1.11.0 (using 4.2.00 (KDE 4.2.0), Kubuntu packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.27-11-generic

I have a wish that kmail would truncate e-mail addresses (To addresses and CC
addresses) in the mail view when they exceed a certain number (this number
being small). When you get an e-mail that was sent to hundreds of people at one
time and the sender don't know that he/she should have been using bcc, it is
slightly annoying to have to scroll for quite some time before you get to the
actual message. Sadly, administration sends these kind of mails every day...

As a suggestion for implementation (to further explain the wish) I imagine the
first few addresses being shown, then three dots or something similar that
would be clickable (clicking action would be to show all). However, you
probably have a much better idea than me (God you've made a lot of nice
features!), so I leave the implementation fully up to you (of course)!

And as always, keep up the great work! :)
