Bug 323709

I run with Kmail composer HTML settings Disabled, but on several occasions - after changing e.g. spell- checking settings change, or a system software update - the HTML settings have been found to have been re-enabled, causing quite a nuisance until the settings are restored.
  The last occasion was when I used System Settings/Locale/Spellchecking to enable spell checking, after which I realised that the KMail HTML settings had been re-enabled.

So somewhere within KDE is some code that is mandating HTML enabled....


Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Work with HTML options disabled in KMail (4.10.2) Composer
2. Make some change, e.g. set spellchecking on/off via System Settings/Locale, or do some system software update changing KDE components.
3. (I now make a weekly check for the HTML settings, and several times each month find they have been re-enabled.)
Actual Results:  
HTML settings have been fortuitously re-enabled.

Expected Results:  
HTML settings sacrosanct; only the user (or root?) can change them.
