--- Comment #39 from RJVB <rjvber...@gmail.com> ---
A pure text email of 35Mb is massive too, but eating around 4Gb of RAM for that
isn't just massive. That's what you meant, right, not 4Mb for displaying just
the part that fits in your window (which would seem reasonable)? 4Gb, that's
about 120 times the size of the email.

I knew KMail would become a powerkids' tool with the design decision to use a
full-fledged-browser-in-a-widget (QtWebEngine) for rendering everything
including pure text emails but I wasn't expecting this. Then again, I don't
usually get this kind of long letters by email so I have no idea how any other
MUA would handle them.

If the account you got this email on has a web/browser interface it would be
interesting to estimate the resources an actual browser (GChrome or Chromium)
would use to display it, for comparison.
