           Summary: KMail complains about conflict when sending a mail to
                    a message list I'm subscribed to
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 1.99.0
          Platform: Unlisted Binaries
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: marcus at harrisonland.co.uk


Version:           1.99.0
OS:                Linux

I have KMail configured so that my accounts all use their own Inbox folder as
their, "Sent Messages" folder, so as soon as an E-mail is sent it is sent to my
Inbox. This is for clarity when reading threaded E-mail conversations.

However, this presents a problem when sending E-mail to a mailing list that I'm
subscribed to - as both the E-mail I have just sent and the new E-mail coming
in from the mailing list both go to my Inbox, it results in a conflict between
the two messages every single time.

This could potentially happen with, "Keep Replies in This Folder" option
selected on the Inbox (or another folder if you're using E-mail filters) as
well.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Compose a new message to the KDE-PIM mailing list (if you are subscribed) or
alternatively, to the same E-mail address as you are sending it from
2. Click View --> Sent-Mail Folder and select your current inbox as the
sent-mail folder
3. Write yourself a nice message. Put a smiley face on the end.
4. Send it
5. If necessary, click "Check Mail" or right-click on your inbox and click
"Update Folder" (I didn't find this necessary)

Actual Results:  
A nasty pop-up box about resolving conflicts pops up.

Expected Results:  
The Inbox folder should display both messages as separate and distinct objects.

OS: Linux (i686) release 3.0.0-16-generic
