--- Comment #6 from xchain <xchain at gmx.net> ---
As you can see from your screenshot, viewing HTML was fixed indeed, compared to
your original report. Only loading external images still seems to fail for you.

That being said, I tested this again with the current git version as well as
with KMail 5.13.3 by inserting "<img src=https://localhost:8080/image.png>" in
a new mail and serving said image with "python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8080". After
toggling "Load external..." from the contact's context menu I could observe the
GET request and the image displayed fine. With the git version, even reloading
the message was not necessary, just like it should be.

I would suggest to:
- wait for KMail 5.14.1, which has lots of related fixes
- check whether external images load at all, i.e. when the global option for
that is turned on
- turn off KMail's ad blocker
- test with a separate/new local user account on your machine, i.e. check with
a fresh KMail/Akonadi config
- test if another application is able to show the image, e.g. Thunderbird (to
rule out a broken webserver).

If this still does not work in KMail, please file a new bug with clear steps to
reproduce and most importantly attach the broken mail as an mbox file.

> May this be related to some configuration files
See fourth suggestion from above on how to test this easily.
