           Summary: Printing Template which is differnt from Screen-View
           Product: kmail
           Version: 1.11.3
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: mail at soenke-hartung.de


Version:           1.11.3 (using 4.2.3 (KDE 4.2.3) "release 1", KDE:42 /
openSUSE_11.1)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.27.21-0.1-default

The way how E-Mails are printed is the same, how E-Mails are displayed on
screen.
This should be changed. There should be a own Printing-Template which all the
needed information like:
-Senders name
-Senders E-mail address
-both also for the receiver
-Date and Time of the Mail
-A list of attachments
-..[add your own wish here]

At the moment, the Mail is printed exactly like its displayed in the
Message-Window.
This makes Problems because the view depends on the art how headers are
displayed:
-Sometimes the senders Address isn't shown, only his name
-Sometimes the date is shown as "Today, 4:00pm". The correct date can only be
guessed which the Printing-Date on each printed Mail

The HTML-Info-Boxes are also printed. On paper it isn't possible to load
external Images or change plain HTML to user-readable HTML, so this can also be
removed.

I think the layout of a printed Mail should always be equal, no matter which
user has printed it and which style on screen is used.

Of course, all the things can be done, when the user changes his Header-View
and the settings, how dates are displayed. But it shouldn't be necessary to
change all the Kmail-Settings to get a usable printed Mail.
