[opensuse-kde] kmail problem sending jpg via gmail

Ever since updating kontact via yast this morning I have run into problems
sending jpg attachments via the gmail smtp server or to an account on gmail.

If sending via the gmail smtp server, the message reaches 99% and then I get
an error message:

"Sending failed.
Could not write file. The message content was not accepted.
The server responded ' 5.7.0 Illegal attachment"

If sending to the gmail account, the message is bounced and I receive the
following error message from my ISP:

"  SMTP error from remote mail server after end of data:
    host gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com [66.249.93.114]:
    552 5.7.0 Illegal Attachment p32si8007182ugc.26"

I can send the same jpg attachments using thunderbird both via the gmail smtp
server and to the gmail account.

I have tried with several jpg files with no success with kmail.

Other attachments do not seem to be affected - I've sent pdf, tif, png and odt
ones with no problems

Another thing I have noticed is that if I store the message in the draft
folder and click on the jpg attachment to view it (in my default gwenview)
the image will not appear.

My kmail is listed as:
Kmail 1.9.9 (Using KDE 3.5.9 "release 51.2" opensUSE)
and I'm running opensuse 10.3.
