            Bug ID: 320280
           Summary: External Editor Launched Prematurely and Without
                    Signature
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.10.3
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: composer
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: gtwilliams at gmail.com

Selecting Message -> New Message results in the composition window and
immediately starts the external editor.  This is different from all previous
releases.  I used to have to place the cursor into the edit area and hit any
key to launch my editor.

Furthermore, the edit buffer I get omits my signature.  I have to type it in by
hand.

If I save and exit my editor and then press a key in the composer area again,
the full edit buffer, including my signature is loaded in my editor.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Configure an external editor for the composer
2.  Either reply to a message or create a new message
3.
Actual Results:  
Composer window is displayed and the external editor is started immediately. 
The editor's buffer does not contain the signature that appears in the composer
window.

Expected Results:  
The composer window is started and the focus is in the headers.  I can complete
the subject and headers and then move to the edit area and hit a key to start
the external editor.  The external editor will contain my signature.
