           Summary: Handling of HTML-mails uncomfortable
           Product: KMail Mobile
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Maemo 5
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW

          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general

kmail(-mobile) can handle and render html mails.

However, I assume the usual scenario is the following:

Due to security concerns (awareness) and readability, the average user disables
html rendering by default (selecting a folder, Actions flap -> View -> Prefer
HTML to plain text [off]). Actually, that is default already.

However in rare cases a mail with html-formatting might drop in which the user
wants to see rendered as such (mails from grammys new unconfigured pc, for
example).

I would expect that:
1) The user is decently informed that a mail contains html formatting
2) The user might decide on a per-mail per-view basis to render the mail as
such

Same goes for "external references" (e.g. embedded images hosted somewhere).

Found unsatisfactory in 4:4.5~20100910.1175630-1maemo6.1174786 .
