            Bug ID: 368743
           Summary: Regression kMail 5.3.x: kMail steals focus from quick
                    search field
           Product: kmail2
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Neon Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: message list
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: kdebugs at CustomCDROM.de

It happens nearly always and is really annoying:

I switch to a folder, immediately click into the quick search bar above the
message list and enter a search term.

After entering one or two letters, the focus is stolen from the search bar,
causing any subsequent key presses to invoke all interesting kinds of hotkey
functions - which leads to blooming "reply-to"-windows and stuff... :-/

Needless to say that, after closing all undesired "reply-to" windows and what
else, I also have to click into the search bar and position the cursor
correctly to finally complete my originally intended search...

This only appeared after switching to KDE Neon, ie. the older kMail included in
Kubuntu 16.04 did not show this "focus stealing" behaviour.

Reproducible: Always
