Bug#663755: libkio5: Tries to speak SMTP over HTTP proxy

[Stefan Fritsch <sf@sfritsch.de>]

Package: libkio5
Version: 4:4.7.4-4
Severity: normal

This is somewhat related to #663528 but probably a different issue.
Since 4:4.7.4-4 kmail does not crash anymore (thanks for the quick
fix!), but sending mail does still not work.

I use a proxy PAC file for proxy configuration. The host name of my SMTP
server causes the PAC script to return a proxy (i.e. not DIRECT). Kmail
now tries to send SMTP over that proxy:

PUT smtp://my.smtp.server.example.com:25/send?headers=0&from=sf%40sfritsch.de&to=sf%40sfritsch.de&size=343 HTTP/1.1
Host: my.smtp.server.example.com:25

Kmail of course fails with an error message. I have never heard of a
HTTP proxy that supports SMTP. The pac file should not be used for SMTP.
If I add

  if (shExpMatch(url,"smtp:*"))
                  return "DIRECT";

to my pac file, sending mail with kmail works.
