I had the exact same problem when keeping the HEAD branch sync'd with the
KDE_1_1_BRANCH, I fixed it in the HEAD branch by doing the following.

kmreadwin.cpp
Line 61
-#define KMAIL_TMP "&/share/apps/kmail/tmp/"
+#define KMAIL_TMP "&/share/apps/kmail/tmp"

Line 104
-mAttachDir.sprintf("%skmail%d", (const char*)str, getpid());
+mAttachDir.sprintf("%s/kmail%d", (const char*)str, getpid());

Sven can you check this?

Hi Sven,

I have been porting over all the changes that have been made to the 1.1 branch
to the HEAD branch in CVS. I've finished migrating the code and are presently
testing to make sure all the enhancements are working in the HEAD branch ok,
before I check my modifications back in.

I have a few problems, one is that when I start kmail I get the following
warning now (a warning messagebox pops up with the text)
"Failed to create temporary attachment directory
'/home/kde2/.kde/share/apps/kmail/tmp/kmail20221': Permission denied"
and inline image attachments aren't shown inline.

Hmmm the chmod call to make the temporary directory writable is failing, I'll
look into it.  

Bye for now,
Don.
