When I read ASCII-email which are larger then the height of the window, Kmail scrolls frequently to the end or to somewhere in the middle of the email.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Launch Kmail
2. Read a couple of large ASCII-emails.

OBSERVED RESULT
Kmail shows the email at the end instead at the beginning.

EXPECTED RESULT
Kmail should show the email from the beginning.

Hi,

thanks for the quick reply.
My Fedora 31 is up to date. KMail is still on version 5.11.3 which is provided by the RPM-Package kmail-19.04.3-2.fc31.x86_64. I am a bit confused about the versioning. What does the version 19.04.3-2 mean? I guess this one is old as well.
It means that Fedora is sticking on old versions.

19.04 is the version of the combined releases of several KDE applications. It refers to the year/month, so 19.04 is a year old. We will release 20.04 in two weeks, but you could also check with KMail 5.13 (releases 19.12).

Hi,

like I said, there is no update for Fedora 31 (comment #3). I have turned to "rdieter" because as far as I can see he is the packager for Fedora's KDE, but he did not reply.

I will upgrade to Fedora 32 as soon as it is available. It comes with kmail-19.12.2-1.
Regards.

Hi,

I have upgraded to Fedora 32. The version of KMail is 5.13.2 (19.12.2).
I can reproduce this bug.
Do you need some additional information? How can I help to fix this bug?
