            Bug ID: 479851
           Summary: Allow for a single text/html part to be saved decoded
                    (as html file)
    Classification: Applications
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 5.24.4
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: commands and actions
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: bernhard at intevation.de
  Target Milestone: ---

The use case is:
Robin wants to save an HTML email to a file to open it with their favourite web
browser, either to be more secure or to profit from the credentials saved in
the particular browser.

With an email with a single main Content-type: text/html, there is no way (I
could find) to save this content
as HTML file.

Right now there is no attachment shown in the header and even in the email
structure view there is no context menu (and thus no "save as" entry in the
contect menu). Also the "Save attachments" functionality on the email does not
work as it says: There is no attachment.

How to reproduce:
 *  Get hold of an email with only one Content-Type: text/html as main
contents. 
 * Display it with Kmail (reproduced with kmail2 5.24.4 (23.08.4))
 * Try right click on the message, "Save Attachments". 
     -> Observed: does not work with a message: there is no attachment
          Expected:  Should work and ask for a .html filename.

* Enable email structure view
* right click on the main part
  -> Observed: no context menu
  -> expected: context menu that offers working "open" and "save-as" menu
entries beside the common ones
