This is very frustrating... Trying to share links with others. Kmail wraps and
breaks the link. Requiring copy/paste to get the link to work again.

It is really amazing how Mobile stuff gets it, but other do not. In mobile
anything that looks like a link and/or phone, etc is clickable and actionable.
It is ridiculous that kmail messes with urls such that when they arrive. They
are not seen as URL. They are not clickable. They are line wrapped and broken.

Really seems like kmail is an experiment in people who need to fulfill their
time writing code. Rather than a serious email client that the developers use
themselves. Do Kmail devs never send out long links?

I even tried to disable the option to line wrap at so many characters, default
78. No difference. Next email/long url, wrapped several lines and broke. This
is stupid...

Just look at this garbage

Every link broke... What a wonderful piece of software kmail is. I never ever
had this issue with Evolution. This has bothered me for so many years I finally
filed this bug. But issues with kmail are stacking up, the end is very near for
me.

Seriously worse email software ever!!!
