Re: Kmail 5.1.3 not showing jpeg/png images in email

Further update for this bug.

I noticed today that KMail was not rendering images/HTML messages.  I did this 
at the shell:

ps -AF|grep kmail

and saw about 40 processes like this:

jkugler   3501  3080  0 117569 29820  5 Nov25 ?        00:00:12 http.so 
[kdeinit5] http local:/run/user/1000/klauncherXM3081.1.slave-socket local:/
run/user/1000/kmail2fT5983.396.slave-socket

All of them started on November 25 (probably the last time I started KMail).

I stopped KMail (had to `kill` it), and then killed all klauncher processes.  
I then started KMail, and all the HTML messages and images rendered correctly.
