            Bug ID: 323582
           Summary: emails are opened in reply mode
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.11
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: grave
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: lynx at quantentunnel.de

If I open any received email by double clicking it, the mail is presented in
reply-mode.
This poses multiple problems:
1. I can not save any attachments
2. I can not close this window by hitting 'ESC'
3. When closing it by hitting 'x', I am asked wether to save as draft or
discard the mail.
4. After discarding the 'draft', the receiving date of the according mail is
changed to the current date and time on the imap server.

This makes kmail absolutely unusable!!!! It messes up the server side!!!!! Has
noone ever tested this prior to release????

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open a received email (with attachment)
2. try to close by hitting 'ESC' (will fail)
3. try to save an attachment by right clicking it (no option availabe, since in
wrong mode)
4. close draft by clicking on 'x' (will ask for save or discard)
5. take a USABLE mail client and check the receiving date of the mail opened in
1. (will be set to the current date/time)
Actual Results:  
see above

Expected Results:  
Well, mails should not be opened in reply mode!!!

This, including other issues with akonadi on imaps, is the worst condition I've
ever seen kmail in  after about 10 years of usage.
