           Summary: change in behaviour: forwarded messages
           Product: kmail
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kmail@kde.org
        ReportedBy: osnut@pacbell.net


Version:           1.5 (using KDE KDE 3.1)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:          Linux

Prior to version 1.5, forwarding a message would place the body of the message to be \
forwarded as the body of the new message; after the update, forwarding a message \
causes the original message to be inserted as an attachment.

I don't see anything documenting this as "new & expected behavior", so if it is, how \
do I turn it off?  [I want to EDIT the contents of what I'm forwarding -- often I'm \
sending stuff from one mailing list to another and I want to drop the "automatic \
footers" of the original message because they obviously don't apply to the "other" \
list...]

hmmm... last minute check -- I *just now* noticed a small black triangle indicating \
that the "forward" button has alternate actions -- ok, I do see "forward inline" and \
I see that it does "do what I want", but even though it is the first item in the sub \
menu, it doesn't appear to be the default [I've downgraded this from "bug" to \
"wishlist", but I'm surprised the developers didn't think of this -- any time you \
allow a button to have "multiple personalities", SOMEONE isn't going to like what you \
pick as the "default" -- there should be a way for the end user to specify which form \
of "forwarding" should be the default] \
