            Bug ID: 397483
           Summary: Sendmail-type Sending account command does not take
                    options
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 5.8.3
          Platform: Archlinux Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: vishnugb at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

I have a couple of mail accounts, with sending configured using 'msmtp'. I am
able to send emails on all of those accounts, via command-line, choosing each
account as follows:

    $ echo "<Message>" | msmtp --account=<account_name> recipient at email.tld

But when I configure KMail to use this under Settings > Accounts > Sending, as 
a 'Sendmail'-like account (click on 'Add' in the same settings dialog), I get 
the error notification:

    E-Mail Sending Failed
    Failed to transport message. Failed to execute mailer program /usr/bin/
msmtp --account=<account_name>

Then again, it does work in one particular case. I have three accounts, and 
the msmtp configuration allows you to choose one of your accounts as the 
default. For the default account, the sendmail setting (in Kmail) is just '/
usr/bin/msmtp' (without the --account=<account_name>). And in that case it is 
able to send it.

Also, my mail, and its thread in the mailing-list, regarding the same issue:
