            Bug ID: 382856
           Summary: KMail2 - Received e-mail without a colon on the header
                    field "To" does not display
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 5.3.2
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org

  Target Milestone: ---

KMail/5.3.2 (Linux/4.4.74-18.20-default; KDE/5.26.0; x86_64; ; )

If a received e-Mail has a "To" header field without a colon then, KMail2 hangs
for a while and then after a while begins to respond and, doesn't display the
received message -- the "Attachments" panel only indicates a data amount
indicated by the e-Mail's title.

Opening the .local/share/.local-mail.directory/ e-Mail file with a text editor
and appending a colon (and a space for the KMail2 clear text to display "To:"
in bold) to the "To" fixes the issue.

For example, part of a header received from Thunderbird running on a Linux
platform before the "To" was changed to "To: ":
