            Bug ID: 308974
          Severity: normal
           Version: 4.9.2
          Priority: NOR
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
           Summary: Copy and pasted image from gimp not accepted by kmail2
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: richard.bos at xs4all.nl
          Hardware: openSUSE RPMs
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
         Component: composer
           Product: kmail2

I used to add images (screenshots) from gimp into kmail.  I recently upgraded
from kde-4.6.x to 4.9.x and now that (copy images into kmail2) is not possible
anymore.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. launch ksnapshot
2. make a screenshot and sent it to gimp
3. process the image / screenshot in Gimp (get for example only the interesting
part of the screenshot, using the rectangle selection)
4. I now use <ctrl>-<shift>-<v> to copy the smaller rectangle into its own gimp
canvas to add for example an red circle, to highlight the interesting area of
image
5. copy the newly created image <ctrl>-c
6. Paste the image into the kmail2 composer
7. kmail2 asks: inline / or as an attachment

Steps 3 and 4 are not really needed, but it shows why I want to use Gimp.

Actual Results:  
When inline is selected:
  There is now only a very small image representing the image, but the real
image isn't present :(

When attachment is selected:
  a name for the attachment is to be entered.  But no attachment is created :(


Expected Results:  
When inline is selected:
  The real image must show up

When attachment is selected:
  After entering the image name, the image should be added to the email as an
attachment
