Yes, I know…

IIRC, the problem is that Webkit can print the HTML like a browser, but /not/ embedded into the remaining part of the message (headers, etc.).  I have no idea if it is possible to let it render into some kind of bitmap buffer, and then embed that buffer into the usual printout (which then probably has a bad quality).  So, for the time being, the only solution seems to open the HTML part into a browser, and print from there.

You might want to run Balsa with all debug messages (G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all) or only low-level networking messages (G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=libnetclient) enabled and check if anything unusual happens with the problematic mailbox.  Remember that passwords will be printed in the output, so please sanitise any files before posting them.

Can you build balsa w/ debugging symbols and run it in gdb?

Best,
Albrecht.
