SUMMARY Hovering over a link no longer makes the cursor a hand, and clicking on the link doesn't open the link. Right clicking and selecting "Open URL" *does* work. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Get e-mail 2. Hover over link 3. Click OBSERVED RESULT No "hand" cursor, link doesn't open in browser EXPECTED RESULT Cursor turns into a hand, and link opens. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Neon, latest packages (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0 Qt Version: 6.6.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I confirm in Plasma 6.0.1 on Opensuse Tumbleweed
Oddly enough, text converted to links (such as in a non-html message) can simply be clicked. Images/links in an HTML message must be right-clicked.
But even in non-HTML messages, cursor still does not convert to a hand.
I confirm it. I will investigate this problem. Regards
I have this same issue KDE Plasma 6.0.4 Fedora40

One other problem doesn't seem to be mentioned here: the old behavior opened the link in the background and DID NOT CHANGE FOCUS. Now, no matter how it's done, if a link is opened, focus immediately changes to browser. I suppose there may be an argument for immediately changing focus, but this is a regression from many years of no focus change.
I just noticed this seems to be fixed. KMail 6.2.3 (24.08.3) Cursor turns into a hand when hovering over links. HTML and non-HTML messages. Is that intentional? Or did it get fixed as a result of another change?
I confirm this is resolved in KMail 6.2.3 Unfortunately I don't know which commit or merge request fixed it.
Click on links still cause focus to jump to browser. This never happened before this bug was reported. That is still a regression.
