            Bug ID: 298083
          Severity: minor
           Version: unspecified
          Priority: NOR

           Summary: Duplicate message conflict due to "Mark selected
                    message as read after" option when opening a message
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: piny at gmx.com
          Hardware: openSUSE RPMs
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
         Component: message list
           Product: kmail2

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:11.0) Gecko/20100101
Firefox/11.0
Build Identifier: 

Scenario: 
- Main KMail window with several new, unread messages listed
- Selection of one of the new, unread messages (double click) and reading in
separate window
- After a reproducible time x which is exactly (within 1 second resolution) the
time defined 
  in the "Mark selected message as read after" option dialog, a conflict
message appears:
  - Two identical messages are displayed in a diffs-format
  - The right message has time stamp (at bottom) of <now> in UTC format
    (in my case 2 hours before local time)
  - The left message has time stamp (at bottom) of <now> - x
- User is forced to select deletion of one of the messages 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set time for "Mark selected message as read after" to x seconds
2. Open an unread email in separate sub-window (double click)
3. Conflict message appears x seconds afterward (cf. details above)
4. Repeat steps 1-3 with further unread mails with different values for x

Actual Results:  
cf. step 3 above

Expected Results:  
No conflict, ability to use the functionality "Mark selected message as read
after"

OS:  Linux 3.1.9-1.4-desktop x86_64
System:  openSUSE 12.1 (x86_64)
KDE:  4.7.2 (4.7.2) "release 5"

Steps to avoid conflict message:
1. Uncheck the option "Mark selected message as read after"
or
2. Set x = 0

This (1) however either forces the user to manually mark messages as read
or (2) has them marked as read by just hovering over the entry with the arrow
keys.
