Okay Brian. I deleted from CC. Sorry if anytime I did it and annoyed you. This 
was not my intention. I simply did (do) "Answer to all" in kmail. So, I 
apologize if anytime in the future I press this button in a thread that you 
are, and mail comes to you duplicated.

Well. I asked for the "conclusion" because the discussion on the topic takes 
technical direction and no one answers, explicityly, to what I interested. I 
only wanted to know if I can do that and how.

For this reason, I did not think in bugzilla it. Because I did not know if it 
was a bug yet ;-)

If I bugzilla it, I will do with minor priority. It's a non-important "bug". 
Only it could be important for users that have many terminals.

Xan.
