Enabling HTML by default introduces a whole slough of security issues. Many phishing attacks, XSS problems, and other scams depend on having HTML e-mail. It is definitely better, from a security standpoint, to enable only plain text by default. Users who are more technically savvy and aware of the various threats can easily change the default in the settings. Users who aren't technically proficient probably should leave the default at plain text. > /Regards > Torgny > _______________________________________________ > KDE PIM mailing list kde-pim@kde.org > https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-pim > KDE PIM home page at http://pim.kde.org/ > _______________________________________________ KDE PIM mailing list kde-pim@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-pim KDE PIM home page at http://pim.kde.org/
