            Bug ID: 316917
           Summary: add button for replying with plain text
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.10.1
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR

          Reporter: silver.salonen at gmail.com

As it sometimes happens that HTML-reply is not very consistent with the
original HTML-code, I'd like to switch from replying with HTML to replying by
plain text. When I just uncheck "Options -> Formatting (HTML)" the original
e-mail is not quoted properly as it is when unchecking "Reply using HTML if
present".

As "Options -> Formatting (HTML)" is not intended only for replying I guess it
wouldn't do to change the behavior of this option. There should still be some
easy way to reply to individual e-mails with proper plain-text quotations (or
switch to the quotations while replying, but I guess that would be not so easy
to implement).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Check setting "Reply using HTML if present"
2. Open some HTML-email
3. Reply to it
Actual Results:  
If quoted HTML-code is not of satisfactory and plain-text reply is preferred,
the "Reply using HTML if present" setting needs to be unchecked and checked
after replying to the e-mail. It's just inconvenient. 

Expected Results:  
It would be much easier if there would be a button to reply with plain-text
quotation.
