+ <p>messagelib is the library used by KMail to display emails.</p>
+ <p>messagelib by default displays emails as plain text, but gives the user
+ an option to "Prefer HTML to plain text" in the settings and if that option
+ is not enabled there is way to enable HTML display when an email contains HTML.</p>
+ <p>Some HTML emails can trick messagelib into opening a new browser window when
+ displaying said email as HTML.</p>
+ <p>This happens even if the option to allow the HTML emails to access
+ remote servers is disabled in KMail settings.</p>
+ <p>This means that the owners of the servers referred in the email can see
+ in their access logs your IP address.</p>
