Bug ID: 449239
Summary: kmail treats background color of plaintext emails as
html mail background
Product: kontact
Version: 5.19.1
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: mail
Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
Reporter: Mathias.Homann at opensuse.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug
symbols.
See
https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. configure kmails color settings as follows:
[x] Eigene farben benutzen (use own colors)
[X] Farbe der ursprünglichen HTML mail nicht ändern (don't change colors in
html mails)
2. open a plaintext email
OBSERVED RESULT
The text is colord according to the customized colors but the background of a
PLAINTEXT email is switched to white, making the whole mess unreadable in my
case.
EXPECTED RESULT
I would expect kmail to change all colors, including the background, if the
mail is plaintext only.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20220125
KDE Plasma Version: 5.23.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.90.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2
Kernel Version: 5.16.1-1-default (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: X11
Processors: 8 × 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-1185G7 @ 3.00GHz

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The problem here is using a Plasma-wide dark color scheme - you HAVE to have
kmail adjust the colors, or mails will be unreadable. but there seems to be no
working combination of these two options that works equally well with
plaintext- and html emails.
