Description kardan 2018-08-06 14:25:13 UTC
1. with the standard layout (folder tree, message list and message
preview) enabled

2. click on any message in the list to show it

3. right click another one and choose _View > Answer_ in the tray menu


*Expected behavior*

An editor to reply the clicked message should be opened.


*Actual behavior*

- with claws from git (3.16.0git256)

- the wrong message is quoted in the message editor. Also the subject is wrong. For both the message currently shown in the preview is used instead. Only the To address is correct.

This is because summaryview's "Reply" goes via compose_reply_from_messageview_real(), which assumes we're replying to the message currently in messageview (see first part of the function). IMHO, summaryview should have its own callback handler for this, or the mentioned function should be changed, somehow, to work exclusively on the list of messages passed to it in the "msginfo_list" parameter.
