Since someone else did their evaluation, I thought it was time I took another look at KMail. The new version in 11.1B5 is very nice, and handles somethings even better than Thunderbird. However, as it always has, it just doesn't begin to handle HTML anywhere near as well as T-Bird!! I had hoped it did, not that I use it all the time...I don't. But, when it's is necessary, it needs to do a good job. Maybe in a year or so it will handle it correctly and with a full compliment of features users want.
I agree, fred. There's not enough HTML support. I tried an HTML message and sent it to my outlook mailbox. It was able to format text alright - though no tables or images. I was unable to paste an image (png file) into the message body, nor was I able to insert one inline. I only got binary gobblygook when I tried. http://www.perfectreign.com/stuff/2008/20081118_kmail_html.png The formatting came across fine, though. -- kai www.filesite.org || www.perfectreign.com Clean out a corner of your mind and creativity will instantly fill it. - Dee Hock
