Hi everyone, at first I thought it is a straight bug in kmail that some (actually most of the) meeting invitations from my co-workers do not get displayed inline, but instead as "meeting.ics" attachments. If I open these attachments in kontact the meeting is not added to my calendar and the person who scheduled the meeting does not get a reply. If I press "v" to view the source code of the mail, the invitation suddenly gets displayed inline. After some diggin' I found out that it has actually to do with on demand attachment loading. If I turn it off in the IMAP account settings the invitations is displayed inline when I select the mail. It seems to me that the size of the attachment/mail matters. An invitation with only four attendees gets displayed inline, while another one with five doesn't. Difference between them in bytes is just ~250, but the bigger one is over 5000 bytes. Is there a magic threshold around 5k where the on demand loading kicks in? Is there a way to force fetching/display of text/calendar mime parts? I was thinking about developing a patch that adds an exception for meeting invitations. Any ideas where to look to get started? Regards Heiko
