           Summary: Cannot copy and paste email address from kmail to
                    kaddressbook
           Product: kmail
           Version: 1.13.5
          Platform: Unlisted Binaries
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: GUI
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: finex at finex.org


1) Open Kmail
2) select an email
3) right click on the "From" email address (in the header section) and select
"copy email address".

If the address is in the form "Name Surname <email at domain.com>" it will be
copied the whole string, not only the address.

4) pasting the string into kaddressbook email field in the "Edit contact"
dialog or into the email field in the "Add new address" (and "edit address")
doesn't work because it needs a clean email string.



"Copy email address" action should copy only the address.
(...or kaddressbook should be smart enough to understand it, but I don't think
kaddressbook devs would like to implement this feature).
