Uh? Displaying HTML e-mails is disabled by default in KMail. You have to 
explicitly enable this in the Security section of the configuration 
dialog. This option is near the other one you have to check if you want 
KMail automatically loads external references embedded in an HTML 
message.
But I think the limitations about which the OP was referring to are the 
ones when we want to send HTML e-mail, not to see received HTML mail.
The KMail composer is still limited when it comes to creating HTML 
messages. But worst than that is the impossibility to forward HTML e-
mail retaining its original format, unless you forward it as an 
attachment, but then you can't add your comments to the original 
message.
For reading incoming HTML mail, KMail is ok.
