Bug ID: 505898
Summary: Modify the temp folder of attachements from /tmp to
/tmp/kmail
Classification: Applications
Product: kmail2
Version First 6.3.3
Reported In:
Platform: Debian testing
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
Reporter: alexandre.bonneau at linuxfr.eu
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Currently, when opening temporary files from any emails, the attachement is
saved in `/tmp/messageviewer_attachement_<code>`.
After a moment, the /tmp folder can display quite a lot of those folders.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Just use Kmail and open a few mail with attachements
2. Check the /tmp folder
OBSERVED RESULT
Lots of `/tmp/messageviewer_attachement_<code>` folders displayed
EXPECTED RESULT
It would be more 'clean' to create all those temporary folder inside
`/tmp/kmail/messageviewer_attachement_<code>`, so that when browsing /tmp you
do not see a wall of temp folders
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version: 4:6.3.5-1
