            Bug ID: 472082
           Summary: KMail doesn't load externally referenced images when
                    email is displayed in own window
    Classification: Applications
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 5.23.2
          Platform: Neon
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: UI
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org

SUMMARY

KMail doesn't respect the "Allow messages to load external references from
Internet" setting for emails when displayed in their own window. It respects
the setting only in the preview pane.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1. Go to KMail -> Settings menu -> Configure KMail -> Security tab, -> ensure
that "Allow messages to load external references from Internet" is checked
2. Back in KMail's main interface, find an email that has HTML content with
pictures. Click on it. In the preview pane, external references appear as they
should.
3. Now double-click on the email item to make it appear in its own window.

OBSERVED RESULT

When the email is in its own window, no external HTML pictures are loaded.
Instead a red box appears with this message: 

"Note: This HTML message may contain external references to images etc. For
security/privacy reasons external references are not loaded. If you trust the
sender of this message then you can load the external references for this
message by clicking here."

EXPECTED RESULT

Externally referenced HTML pictures should be immediately visible, as they are
in the preview pane.
