            Bug ID: 392239
           Summary: Messages or parts have no line breaks displayed
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 5.7.2
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: kde at snafu.de
  Target Milestone: ---

Messages or parts of multipart messages with
    Content-Type: text/plain;charset="utf-8"
    Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
are displayed without line breaks (but spaces are kept).

I apologize to not include an example, but the mails in question contain
information that I'd rather not have disclosed here.

I verified by base64-decoding the blocks in question, and the results show line
breaks and thus appear as "well-formatted plain text".

Mails from the same source but with
    Content-Type: text/plain;charset="utf-8"
    Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
are shown alright ,so it's likely due to base64 post-processing.

Encountered on Tumbleweed.
