Version: 1.5 (using KDE 3.1.0) Installed from: SuSE Compiler: gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (SuSE) OS: Linux (i686) release 2.4.18 Hi, it's me again :o) KMail 1.5 has this nice feature to display plain message digests like the ones from SourceForge as a set of "virtual" inline attached mails. The only problem: It doesn't really work; it seems like KMail doesn't parse it's own headers. I'll attach a screenshot and a sample mail. Cheers, Malte
Created attachment 837 [details] Screenshot of the message window
Created attachment 838 [details] Sample mail
Created attachment 1623 [details] mail with headers in body In 1.5.2 it's even worse: now the Content-Type and Content-Description is shown above the mail body; those headers must be generated by KMail because that mail doesn't contain a Content-Description with such a value...

As Gregor Waluga pointed out in bug 63663 does KMail also "swallow" some mails from the digest. In his case that might be because the body has the same format like mail headers and KMail misinterprets some of them (just an idea).

Subject: Re: "Virtual" messages from plain digest newsletter are broken This bug is keeping me from reading mailing list digests. I might change my attachment display from "as Icons" or "smart" to "inline" as a workaround, but I don't really want that for real attachments, and I don't want to change the setting every time I view a digest message. Even if fixing this is complicated, I should at least be able to turn the message transformation feature off and view the unmangled message... enforcing it is just bad, especially when it's broken.

This still happens under KDE 3.2.
Created attachment 18306 [details] The rendering in 3.5.5 Similar on 3.5.5. Some headers are shown in the main part of the message, as shown in attachment 1 [details], and the To and From headers aren't read properly in the inline messages (as shown in this shot)
This problem still exists in 4.1, testing with the sample mail from comment #2
SVN commit 1011081 by tmcguire: Add a newline between MIME headers and message header, so that the objecttree parser can correctly parse the new child nodes.
