Thank you everyone for your interest in my problem. I'm back on line with KMail for the present. On Sun, Oct 29, 2017 at 1:17 PM, ianseeks <bingmybong@btinternet.com> wrote:

First, my apologies if the original message got to the list 3 times. Gmail is showing it 3 times because it took me a while to remember to kill html in gmail.
I'm getting ready to go on vacation where data will be limited so I don't want to use gmail. I am trying kmail (forwarding gmail IMAP) to see if it will work while I'm gone.
I was reading mail in kmail and was looking for a simple way to display it in html since I had a mail from a reliable source that has pictures attached. In the process I right clicked the email hoping to
There should be clickable links (with warnings) in the email itself to allow you to display the HTML content
find a menu item (on the context menu) that would display the email in html so I could see the pictures attached. I clicked "edit" (on the context menu -- out of curiosity to see what it would "edit") and kmail blew up (i.e. terminated itself, Kontact, Konversation, etc.) and now none of them will start when I click their icons. I just get the notification that it closed unexpectedly and to file a bug report (but that itself fails to install the packages required to produce useful information).
There is obviously something set somewhere that tells Kontact/Kmail not to start. I would like to delete that and see what happens.
I was running 20171026 at the time. I updated to 20171027 this a.m. but the problem persists. I have searched my home directory for any file that might have the information to prevent Kontact from starting but to no avail so far.
Hope this is a better description of my angst.
hello,
I guess you are new to linux, no problem, but your text is not very understandable, let's try
* "I right clicked on an email" to right clic on an email, you have to use some software. I guess you use a webmail with Firefox, right? or try to email a photo or a text from the image or text processor?
* did you look on an other desktop to see if your program (kmail, kontact) is not waiting there? How do you try to start it?
