Well, reported as:

#793508 kmail: contacts gravatar.com to fetch face images of senders of opened 
mails by default
https://bugs.debian.org/793508

(specifically not to fingerpoint at anyone, just to make aware of the issue 
and thus give the Debian Qt/KDE team a chance to fix it either by uploaded KF5 
based KMail soonish or by uploading a fixed package).

May I ask in which KMail version Laurent added this? I wonder whether the 
Debian Sid or Debian Jessie packages are affected. I am using kmail from 
Debian Experimental.
