            Bug ID: 334583
           Summary: cannot send mail to distribution list
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.13
          Platform: Kubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: composer
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: orion2000za at yahoo.co.uk

sending mail to distribution lists fails. Choose a distribution list as
recipient and an error message pops up: 

listname at computername: The email address you entered is not valid because it
does not contain a '.'. You will not create valid messages if you do not change
your address.

The mail can only be sent if you use the "select" button, expand your
distribution list, select all recipients and then add them to your composed
mail

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. compose a mail, choose a distribution list as receiver (using "select",
autocompletion impossible)
2. a message pops up: The email address you entered is not valid because it
does not contain a '.'. You will not create valid messages if you do not change
your address.
3. mail can not be sent to distribution list as intended and in earlier
versions
Actual Results:  
as described in step 3 the distribution list does not get added to the
recipients of your mail

Expected Results:  
contacts in your selected list gets added as recipients to your mail

Regression from version 4.12.x where this function worked as expected. In fact
"baloo" does not seem to find lists, you have to use the "select" button in the
composer
