I am not sure about kipi-plugins 0.1.6 and digiKam 0.9.4, since I'm using the
ubuntu supplied packages of 0.1.5 and 0.9.3 - those still have the same
behaviour. 

For the KDE4 version the email images tool appears to silently omit images that
exceed the limit set under "Maximum e-mail size limit". For example:

Scenario 1: Select 3 images that are each around 2.5MB.  Set the email limit to
2MB.  Nothing happens except for empty dialog box. I would expect some error
message saying "The images you trying to email are too large to send due to the
Maximum e-mail size limit option.  It is recommended that you select the option
to re-size the image and try again."

Scenario 2: Select 3 images (1.7MB, 1.8MB, and 2.5MB).  Set the email limit to
2MB.  Two emails are created one with a 1.7MB and one with a 1.8Mb.  The 2.5MB
is silently omited. I would expect some error message similar to Scenario 1. 

Scenario 3:  Select 3 images that are each around 2.5MB. Set the email limit to
2MB. Allow re-sizing of images. All nicely fit into one email and the tool
works as expected.
