I just realized that the whole thing is also related to the user config setting "Display HTML" in the "Displaying messages" section. If disabled, Roundcube DOES reply to the text/plain part (if at the same time "Compose HTML messages" is set to "Never").
Yes. This is by design. If you view the message as HTML we use the same part for response. It's because text and html part may differ. I think it's better to use on reply the same part which was viewed.
If "Display HTML" is disabled, I see the text/plain part. Optional, I can click on the "HTML message" link to display the text/html part. This is great, but:
a) If I click on the link "HTML message", the HTML message is (of course) being loaded, but along with all remote images without any warning (and although I didn't explicitely allow Roundcube to load those images). This is in contradiction to the situation when "Display HTML" is ENABLED, where those images are NOT loaded by default. So enabling this option is more secure than disabling it...?
This might be a bug. Create a ticket in our bugtracker.
b) Vice versa ("Display HTML" being enabled) I do NOT get a link to display the text/plain part. But if this link would exist, THIS could do the trick with regards to if I will reply with a HTML or a plain text message (and which part of the message will be quoted). At least I should have the chance to VIEW the text/plain part, even if "Display HTML" is enabled.
I do not have a final concept at hand, but would you agree that some redesign is needed here...?
I agree, it would be good to have a html/text switching button in message preview pane. Would you like to work on a patch?
