Bug#316081: kmail: Unexpectedly resorts Addresses in drop-down
Package: kmail
Version: 4:3.3.2-3
Severity: normal
When creating a new message KMail attempts to provide a list of
addresses to choose from once the first few letters of the name or
address have been entered.
Once it has retrieved a list it then sorts them, but this can take a
second or two to occur.
The upshot is that the address you thought you were clicking has been
sorted into a different location, and you can easily end up emailing the
wrong person.
