hi, everybody!
i'm using kmail-tde via the protonmail bridge beta for email, and i've encountered a puzzling issue.
when i send a message with an attachment, the attachment arrives but the message space is labeled "Empty Message." this is problematic for a number of reasons.
of course i first got in touch with the protonmail people, and we went through a few tests -- plain text vs. html and so on -- and no joy. they've pointed out that the only linux client they support, anyway, is thunderbird, so for everything else we're on our own. (i do not like thunderbird and like it even less for its poor support of maildir.)
looking in kmail configuration, the lone reference i see for attachments (beside turning on the flag to tell me i used the word "attached" without attaching anything) is some sort of outlook mode, which when checked flings a warning of Very Bad Things if i use it. (fwiw, protonmail bridge does support outlook.)
before i check the box, anybody know what's going on with the attachments sending but the messagfs not? btw, they show up just fine in the sent-mail directory.
tia.

file a bug and attach the source of the mail (from the sent-mail directory) and the source of the mail from the recipient.
Is the source the same and you can not see it or it is completely truncated?
Are you not able to see the mail message (body) in kmail or in other mail client. Provide step by step instruction to reproduce it, although I don't think someone has protonmail, but just for the record.
regards

before i file a bug report, i want to investigate to make sure that it's not something in my configuration or the way protonmail itself works. there's too much work for too few people in tde for me to take it to them until i've made sure it's not something i'm doing or that a third party is doing. i asked here because i thought there might be some obvious box to tick or untick that i'd missed.

Just check the raw content of the mail by pressing "v".
It is also possible that encrypted mail is shown as attachment.
