           Summary: Can not add contact in kmail
           Product: kmail
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: orzel at freehackers.org


Version:            (using KDE 4.2.1)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

I click on an email to add a contact. Either an email in the header or in the
mail content. I use 'right-mouse-button'. Kmail proposes to "add to the
addressbook" (rough translation, i dont use English here).

I have an error box with only one sentence, which translates to "unknown
error(unable to list items)"

if i try again, then the righ-mouse-button menu proposes "see contact in
address book", but if i click on some other folder, and come back, then the
action is again "add to addressbook", and it still gives the error window.

If i use kmail's menu tools/addressbook, i can see that the email has actually
been added. Twice, as i did try twice because of the menu thinguy.

I see several bugs here actually
* adding an email brings an error while there is no error.
* the error message by itself is really not clear (unknown error, i feel like
being on windows again)
* why do the action name in the menu change ?
* addressbook should check for duplicate when adding an email (no?)

greatings.
