           Summary: query string truncated from resource URL when trying
                    to update remote resource over http
           Product: kaddressbook
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org

Version:            (using KDE 4.3.1)
Compiler:          GCC 4.3.2 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

I've been trying to get Kontact to work with my Zimbra contacts list.
I added it as a network resource, using vcards.

I can read them with no problem using http[s]://server/path/to/contacts.vcf or
http[s]://server/path/to/contacts?fmt=vcf
However, writing doesn't work. I captured the packets for an attempt at an http
write. The .vcf version tries the correct URL, but Zimbra doesn't support
writing to it.
However, the ?fmt=vcf version shows that Kontact is POSTing to
http://server/path/to/contacts without the query string, so Zimbra is
interpreting the vcard as a CSV file. It returns 200 OK.
Somewhere between Kontact and the code making the network request, the URL gets
truncated, resulting in lots of empty contacts in Zimbra's list.
