            Bug ID: 317227
           Summary: reply is composed in HTML although quotation is plain
                    text
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.10.1
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: composer
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: silver.salonen at gmail.com

Usage of options "Reply using HTML if present" and "Options -> Formatting
(HTML)" clash a bit: when "Reply using HTML if present" is unchecked and
"Options -> Formatting (HTML)" is checked from the last time, the quotation of
an HTML e-mail is made plain-text ("Reply using HTML if present" off), but the
reply itself is still HTML ("Options -> Formatting (HTML)" on). It would be
more logical if the composer would be put to plain-text mode when replying with
plain-text.

I understand that this breaks the current usage of "Options -> Formatting
(HTML)" - the principle that it should always be the same state as it was the
last time. Or is there such a principle at all? If not, dynamically setting
this option to on/off would not be a problem, I guess?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Check "Options -> Formatting (HTML)"
2. Uncheck "Reply using HTML if present"
3. Start replying to an HTML e-mail
Actual Results:  
Composer is in HTML mode

Expected Results:  
Composer is in pain-text mode
