Description Dennis Sieben 2006-01-04 16:12:14 UTC

If you switch the language in "Settings"->"Configure KMail"->"Composer"->"Phrases", KMail writes the text in "Reply to sender" in german in every reply mail. It doesn't look at the language selection. So even if the language is set to en_US and the standard text "On %D, you wrote:" is in the text field, you will get the translated text "Am Wednesday 04 January 2006 15:41 schrieben Sie:" above every reply mail.
This problem occurs only if KMail is started in german. If it is started in US-English everything works fine. Despite that you have to click the apply button in the config dialog everytime. Only clicking the Ok button doesn't work to accept the changes (Maybe another bug).

The need to Apply then Ok is the actual bug.  The problem is reproducible with en_* as the desktop language, but the problem is that Kmail doesn't recognise its own settings change unless you click Accept then Ok.  If you just Ok the original setting is persisted so your reply language stays German.  I'm looking for the root cause now.

Will, please report that to bugs.kde.org (together with your findings) and close it here. It's a bit too minor.
