Sample message digest from Yahoo groups

Version:           4.6 (using KDE 4.6.3) 
OS:                Linux

Yahoo groups sends e-mails as HTML with a table of contents at the top.  Each entry in the table of contents is a HTML <a href> that references an <a name> farther down in the HTML.  Kmail now doesn't jump-to those links when clicking on the table of contents.

The only thing I see "funny" is that the HTML is sent as quoted-printable.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Click on a TOC link.

Actual Results:  
Nothing.

Expected Results:  
Display jumps to the digest message.

Same problem, but on 4.4 too
Internal link seems working on 4.4.7 but not on 4.4.11.


Already reported to Debian team (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=626261)
Comment 2 Laurent Montel 2011-09-05 15:39:55 UTC 
Ok I can see that it doesn't work.
Will look at why. Don't understand why for the moment.
Comment 3 Tom Collins 2012-04-01 03:01:21 UTC

Comment 4 Laurent Montel 2012-09-02 12:00:38 UTC 
is it work in new version ?
is it work in firefox ?
could you save it in mbox format pleasE ?
Comment 5 Tom Collins 2012-09-23 02:20:00 UTC 
Does not work in KMail 4.8.5, which is what I have available at this time.

Can't try this directly in Firefox, since the e-mail body is quoted-printable encoded, and that has to be un-done before the body is pure HTML.

Attached is a zip file containing this file imported into a maildir directory.

Thanks!

The message, imported into a maildir.
Comment 7 Laurent Montel 2012-09-24 06:40:14 UTC 
Ok I confirm it.
Don't know why for the moment.
Comment 8 Tom Collins 2012-09-25 00:58:48 UTC 
Thanks for checking it out.
Comment 9 Laurent Montel 2012-09-28 06:33:02 UTC 
in void WebKitPartHtmlWriter::end()
we use mHtmlView->setHtml( mHtml , QUrl( "file:///" ) );
and it defines baseurl but it's not correct.
But I don't know how to fix it...

This bug has only been reported for versions before 4.14, which have been unsupported for at least two years now. Can anyone tell if this bug still present?

If noone confirms this bug for a Framework-based version of kdepim (version 5.0 or later, as part of KDE Applications 15.08 or later), it gets closed in about three months.
Comment 11 Denis Kurz 2017-01-07 21:55:19 UTC 
Just as announced in my last comment, I close this bug. If you encounter it again in a recent version (at least 5.0 aka 15.08), please open a new one unless it already exists. Thank you for all your input.
