Created attachment 114694 [details] Issue with a not too big HTML file When I receive an e-mail with a big (> 4MB) HTML file attached, kmail take a long time to show the preview of the message (in HTML format) because it wrongly manage the attached file as a "body part". With this kind of e-mail if I try to click on the "HTML side bar" to switch to the "plain massage" format it doesn't works and remain in the "html message" format. I think that the problem is due to the way that kmail manages the HTML files attached to an e-mail: kmail considers this files as a body part of the e-mail and it tries to preview them instead of show only the file name at the end of the body text (as it happens, in instance for a zip file). There is a way to consider an HTML attached file as a normal file and then disable its preview? If not, could you change this behavior? If I click on an e-mail with a very big HTML attachment kmail became unresponsive for a long period: for this reason I set the severity of this bug to "major". Thanks...
5.7.3 is very old we released 5.9.0 one month ago. Could you verify with new version please ?
(In reply to Laurent Montel from comment #1) > 5.7.3 is very old we released 5.9.0 one month ago. > Could you verify with new version please ? Unfortunately, on Debian (testing), is available only this (5.7.3) version. I could try with a live (and more updates) distro but I need free time to test it... If you are using the last version, could you verify if the behavior with the attached HTML files is the same? Thanks...
it's a png image :) not a html file :)
(In reply to Laurent Montel from comment #3) > it's a png image :) not a html file :) What? My attachment? Yes, is a png image but show what happen when I receive an e-mail with an HTML file attached... By any chance do you know which linux (live) distro have already the last version of kmail? Thanks...
I've just tried kmail 5.9.1 (on Neon) and I can confirm the issue. When I receive an e-mail with a big (~8MB) HTML file attached I'm not able to view the content of the e-mail (the "message preview pane" is stuck on the previous e-mail shown). When I receive instead an e-mail with a not so big (~2MB) HTML file attached I've to wait some seconds to view the content of the e-mail. I think that the issue is due to the fact that kmail "wrongly" manage the HTML attached file as a "body part" (by trying to parse/open it) and not as a canonical attached file (that should be opened by an external program). What do you think?
