           Summary: enable the user to access html-emails even without the
                    mime tree
           Product: kmail
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: sven.burmeister at gmx.net


Version:            (using KDE 4.1.1)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

If the user has disabled the mime-tree, because it is not needed for anything
else but this issue, he cannot access the html-version of an email, if that
email has a plain-text part too.

If the email only has a html-part (actually the worst case), kmail displays a
notification and the user can chose to show the html. The same notification
should be shown, if there is a plain-text and a html part, since a lot of
newsletters use the plain-text part just to tell the user that he has to visit
the website, if his email-client cannot display html messages. Although this is
the "nicer" version of html-emails, it is not handled as well by kmail as the
worst case, i.e. only html.

With this implemented bug 47882 could finally be fixed as well.
