Good day all,
I was wondering if there was a way to put a custom field into an address book
contact to allow html emails, and then have kmail recognise this and allow
html emails to be shown in the preview window?
thanks in advance

I think that what you're asking for is a way to send email to specific
contacts in HTML? As far as I'm aware, there is no such functionality. This
is the reverse of a long-standing wish-list item to have emails from
certain people display if it comes in as an HTML. I think you'll have to go
to bugzilla and enter a new wishlist item.

I actually meant having it show html *from* that particular contact, but as
you stated in the latter part of your email it appears to be a long standing
wish list item.
Oh well, thanks for your response, I'll go and express my wishes to them
directly.
Thanks

In KMail 1 it's possible to set folders to display html, so you could achieve
what you want by filtering such mail into designated folders. I know that more
html support is planned for KMail 2 but I don't know how far it has got.

Really??? I didn't know that was possible on a folder-by-folder basis! I
think it would also be neat to be able to specify on a recpient-by-
recipient basis whether to send in HTML/Rich-Text or plain-text, but not
worth putting in a request for. :D

Somewhat confusingly, the option is in the top-menu Folder item, not in the
context menu. I have two folders which allow html, one for mail from trusted
companies, and one for embroidery-related subject, which often need to include
images and are usually html formatted.
