           Summary: Reply/Forward should ignore the max recipients per
                    line option
           Product: kmail2
           Version: Git (master)
          Platform: Unlisted Binaries
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: composer
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: winter at kde.org


Version:           Git (master) (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

For some reason my configuration set "Maximum number of recipient editor lines"
 to 1.  No idea how that happened, but it did.

Now, when I replied to a message having 2 To addresses and 3 CC addresses I got
the dialog "Sorry: Truncating recipients list to 1 of 4 entries".

I don't think that should happen.  I think when replying or forwarding that
configuration option needs to be ignored so no recipients get lost.

Heck, I'm not even sure why we have this option (probably from the days when we
changed over to the new-style recipients editor)


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
In the KMail Composer settings, General tab: set the Maximum number of
recipient editor lines to 1 and then "Reply to All" a message with more than 1
recipient (To: addresses + CC: addresses)

Actual Results:  
some of the people on the Reply To All list get truncated from the recipients

Expected Results:  
everyone on the Reply To All list are entered into the recipients.  when I say
reply to All I should get all of them.
