• Bug#243664: kmail: does not process multiple headers with same name

    Package: kmail
    Version: 4:3.2.3-1
    Followup-For: Bug #243664

    KMail only checks the first instance of a header that it encounters for matching.

    E.g., assume that a message has these headers:

    X-Foo: abc
    X-Bar: def
    X-Foo: nomatch

    If a filter 'nomatch' on the header X-Foo is setup, it will not be
    matched by the filter.

    This issue is not completely benign, I have an actual use for
    it. One of my accounts forwards mail to a different one, and I want to
    filter them into separate mailboxes. The best indication I could find
    was the 'Delivered-To' field. However, there are multiple
    'Delivered-To' headers in messages, and the first one is always the same
    in both cases, so I had to resort (hopefully as a temporary measure) to
    more unreliable methods.
