            Bug ID: 412190
           Summary: 'HTML Message' or 'plain text message' identifier,
                    could be improved
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 5.12.1
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY

The message to denote what kind of email message you have i.e. 'HTML message'
or 'Plain text message' is strangely positioned between the mail folder list,
and the email body itself.  Perhaps we can have an icon instead to denote this
in the email header section ie where it shows to, from, and subject header. 
There's plenty of room on the right hand side, or it can be placed elsewhere.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open up kmail and click on an email, and you'll see the html/plain text
notification message between the email folders window and the email body.  

OBSERVED RESULT
As above.

EXPECTED RESULT
perhaps an icon at the top of the email message as explained above, or in a
different more relevant location.
