SUMMARY

I received a base64 encoded PDF file (a newsletter) from a family member. When
the message with the attachment appeared into my inbox, kmail crashed
immediately. After removing the message from the inbox, kmail could be started
again and worked flawlessly.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Put mail with base64 encoded PDF in inbox
2. Start kmail.
3. kmail crashes immediately. No time to even open the offending e-mail.
4. Remove the offending message from the inbox.
5. Restart kmail.
6. kmail works again flawlessly.


OBSERVED RESULT
kmail crashes as soon as the e-mail appears in the inbox.

EXPECTED RESULT
kmail does not crash and I would be able to read the message.

KDE Plasma Version: 5.16.5
