Version: 1.8.2 (using KDE 3.4.2 Level "b" , SUSE 10.0) Compiler: Target: i586-suse-linux OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.13-15-default please add a new ability to KMail - to "save as" HTML format. The lack of - is the only reason I still use Thunderbird on Linux.
How would it be saved? The exact representation of what you see in the message pane? (That's HTML)
I want to make it work like Mozilla Thunderbird. Saving emails as HTML is vital for me. I want to archive lots of emails that way.
Hello - is anyone looked on this? This is a very needed feature.
Hello - is anyone looking at this report at all !?!?
It's not very likely that your wish will be implemented by the core developers. If you are lucky then someone else will contribute a patch but I would bet a dime on it.
This is a feature that a lot of people expect when using a mail reader, why not implement it?
KDE dev clearly ignored this wish. I suggest people to vote for this feature (requires registration, but hey do you want that feature?)
Thank you for your feature request. Kmail1 is currently unmaintained so we are closing all wishes. Please feel free to reopen a feature request for Kmail2 if it has not already been implemented. Thank you for your understanding.
Instead of creating a new feature request, please confirm here if the wishlist is still valid for kmail2.
Yes, Thunderbird can export individual mails to HTML, and kmail2 cannot. Don't really think it's too important, but of course a valid wishlist for kmail2. Would that be component "commands and actions" or just "general"?
With 5.24.4 it is still a problem. With an email with Content-type: text/html, there is no way (I could find) to save this as HTML file. The use case is: Robin wants to save an HTML email to a file to open it with their favourite web browser, either to be more secure or to profit from the credentials saved in the particular browser. Right now there is no attachment shown and even in the email structure view there is no context menu (and this no save as entry in the contect menu). Also the "Save attachments" functionality does not work as it says: There is no attachment.
Okay, I start wondering, maybe I am in the wrong use case here. If the original reported wanted an export for the full email as HTML then it would include headers and different MIME parts.
Split out the save text/html part into https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=479851 (Still this stays "confirmed" for kmail2 as I found no way to _export_ a full email as html.)
