Description Casey Allen Shobe 2003-07-10 08:01:37 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc 3.3 
OS:          Linux

Well, we all know that HTML email is evil.  However, some senders (like your electric company's bill-sending address) refuse to send in text-only mode by any method, so viewing the email in HTML mode is a necessity (or for others, perhaps just a preference).  A friend of mine, for instance, dislikes most HTML email (especially spam), but prefers to read his livejournal notifications in HTML mode so that they can include inline pictures and formatting.

I would propose the addition of the ability to add a filter rule to set a message to display in HTML mode, thus, particular senders could have their email shown in HTML mode, with everyone else defaulting into text mode with the one-time option to view HTML.

and it could tie in with an "in address book" filter, which i think is supposed to be comming. woo!
Comment 2 Marc Mutz 2005-06-01 18:30:46 UTC 
You can move these messages to another folder where HTML display is enabled. The problem with tying this to the addessbook is that most spam nowadays is sent using fake emails addresses, so such a filter would be quite useless. You don't want those paypal-phishing mails to show up as html autmatically, do you?

it would be nice to always allow html email from my friends who seem to like html emails (i dont have friends like paypal and ebay)

I would like to see that you have this functionality for showing images in emails as well.

Thank you for your feature request. Kmail1 is currently unmaintained so we are closing all wishes. Please feel free to reopen a feature request for Kmail2 if it has not already been implemented.
Thank you for your understanding.
Comment 9 Luigi Toscano 2012-08-19 01:01:48 UTC 
Instead of creating a new feature request, please confirm here if the wishlist is still valid for kmail2.
Comment 10 Bernd Oliver Sünderhauf 2012-11-24 09:07:39 UTC 
Solved in kmail2 using an addressbook option, not filters.
Still, please mark duplicate of Bug #63780.
