            Bug ID: 306034
          Severity: major
           Version: 4.8.3
          Priority: NOR
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
           Summary: Kmail-4.8.3 does not select the relevant account when
                    replying to a message
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: joulupukin.tontut at yandex.ru
          Hardware: Gentoo Packages
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
         Component: composer
           Product: kmail2

I replied to a message by using the keyboard shortcut for "reply". It opened a
window where I could compose my reply. However, the "From" and "Identity"
fields were populated with the wrong values (those from a different identity
not associated with the folder where the message is). I.e., different From
email address and different IMAP account.
I didn't notice this before sending, so I have inadvertently divulged
information (email address, signature) that I would not have sent otherwise.
That's why I am marking this as "Serious".

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Reply to an email from the folder view. (I use Kontact all the time.)

Actual Results:  
Reply composer opens with the wrong Identity and From address.

Expected Results:  
Reply composer should open with the correct Identity and From address - those
that are associated with the account in question. See "Identities" in the
configurations. The email addresses are listed there.

The copy of the reply message was however saved to the correct IMAP sent folder
on the account from which I wanted to send the message. Ie. somehow Kmail2 did
still know that the email belongs to that account. However, in the message it
wrote the "From" address and signature for the wrong identity.
