Bug#573913: kmail: Other message selected spontaneously when activities change on date change
Package: kmail
Version: 4:4.3.4-2
Severity: normal
Steps to reproduce:
In kmail, pick a mailbox with recent messages. Choose
aggregation mode dependent on Activity (I use "current
activity, threaded"). Select a recent message (one
from the current week, as each day in it is a separate
activity). Wait for the date to change at midnight.
What I expect to see:
Activities change, changing the grouping of messages,
but if a message was selected, it stays selected
What I see instead:
At least when the selected message is in an activity
which changed (say, switched from "today" to "yesterday"
or from "yesterday" to "last week", as it happened today),
a different message is selected. I'm not sure what defines
the new selected message.
This may be related to bug #527569, a.k.a.
