I am running Kmail 1.10.0 under KDE 4.1.1 (Release 26.4) on a 64 bit AMD with the 32 bit versions of Opensuse 11.0 and software installed. When I create a new email and begin typing the name of one of my distribution lists on the "To:" line, it autocompletes with the name of the list, but when I send, it fails to populate the "To:" filed with the addresses in the list. Instead, it assumes that the name of the list is an email address at my local machine (in the form distributionlist@localhostnam...
I thought I was going to wait a while before upgrading, but 4.1 is so zippy, elegant, and just plain beautiful that, now that Kmail is back, I just can't resist trying to make the change now. All those infrastructure improvements are starting to show. The rapidity of the improvements in the short time since the release of 4.0 indicate to me that the new KDE is much easier to improve, especially in the area of modifications to the user interface. I just love the colors of the default style. I'm p...
Thanks for cleaning up the spam! It's a pleasure to see things looking so spic and span.
In the View menu of kaddressbook, choice to show the distribution list editor says "Distribution List Editor NG". I presume "NG" means "no good". My old distribution lists do not appear in the editor. I can make new ones, and edit them, but clicking OK to dismiss the edit dialog does not save them. Unless I save the file before exiting the program, all changes to the distribution lists are lost. I'm running KDE 3.5.9 release 53.1 under Suse 10.3. I have filed a bug report. Any light?
I have the same question, two years later. Since some of the backends, like Mplayer, are supposed to have this capability. I'm not sure why it does not seem to be in Kaffeine or any of the other graphical frontends I've looked at.
I just posted in another thread at Customizing Kaddressbook printing layouts about this, but the short version is that I think the most significant missing functionality in Kaddressbook (which I use and like) is the ability to print mailing lists in a simple format with only the fields (like just name and telephone number) you choose.
Uh oh. It's been more than three years since you posted this, and I am still looking for the answer. Can it be that you can't print out, say, a list of names and telephone numbers for a selected group, list, or category of contacts in Kaddressbook? Or am I just not seeing it, though I've searched high and low both in the interface and the on the web? I love kmail and kaddressbook, and I think this basic functionality, if it is already in there, should be more apparent or, if it is not, should be...
Quoted Originally posted by vdicarlo I have been using Kmail for a few years now, and like it a lot, but the thing that's got me thinking about switching to something else is that there's no good way to move my mail folders (including the subfolder structure) from one installation of KDE to another, as when one changes computers. Yippee! This has apparently now been fixed. I am now using Kmail 1.9.6 which is part of KDE 3.5.7 release 69.1, which was installed by Suse 10.2, and it looks like Dan...
I filed a bug report and was told that it was Suse's bad. In the end, for me it wasn't worth the trouble of hunting down the problem and installing the older version to get it back.
I think I know a little more about this now. I think it is supposed to be in the piece of the Suse 10.2 distro called kdebase3-extra. However, it disappeared some time between the time Suse packaged KDE version 3.5.5 and 3.5.7. I was able to install the older version and get it. However, it was a bit of an anticlimax, since it didn't set up menu items for most of the stuff I was interested in, and that I know is on there, like the Python interpreter. Oh well....

I remembers spending days trying to figure this out the last time it happened to me a few years ago, and there's apparently still no good solution. I'm sure many people, like me, invest a lot of time in fi...
I have the latest version of KDE in the Suse 10.2 repositories (KDE 3.5.7 release 60.1) and Kappfinder seems to have disappeared. It's supposed to be in one of the base packages, but I can't find it. I have KDE version 3.5.5 installed on another computer, and it Kappfinder is present and working.
Thanks for pointing out the features available in regional settings. I think you're right that it's a good start, but it's way too awkward for saving and organizing, say the few hundred blocks of standard text, some several pages long, that I use. But the existing feature does indicate to me that there are hooks in the system that would make it not too hard to write a usable text macro program like the ones we've been using under Windows. I've been looking for a reason to take the trouble to lea...
The utility I've missed most since migrating from Windows is one called Shortkeys, which makes it easy to define keyboard macros that will insert a block of text in any open application. This makes using canned language to respond to similar inquires very easy. I've tried using Klipper for this, but found it to be awkward. You want something that sits in the background waiting for any one of a set of sequences, then replaces that sequence with the canned text instantly. You can use an unusual co...

Thanks! Maybe I'll pick up that project again some time.
I never did find a solution and gave up. Sorry.
I'm getting the same problem. Connection refused with Kbear. No problems with gftp or the the ftp publishing utility in Mozilla. Possible hint: At one point in my experimenting, I got a more helpful message that said that the server was willing to connect to [the external IP address of my Netgear router] but not to [the local IP address of the NIC in the KDE box I'm using]. Maybe someone who knows more than I do can tell me whether I should report this via bugzilla. Vincent
I've been working my way through the tutorial at http://women.kde.org/articles/tutorials/…troduction.html on a Suse 10.0 installation and I've run into a snag. At http://women.kde.org/articles/tutorials/…3/creating.html the tutorial explains how to start a new Simple KDE app with the Application Wizard. Then it tells you to "compile it to ensure that everything is fine. To do that, select Build -> Run automake & friends then "Build -> Run configure." So far, so good. then "so you can run "make" ...
I have the same question.
