Re: kmail auto-completion
Same here; however I've got no "addressbook", only addresses found
automatically, like "recently used"; and my "testing" might be 3-weeks old
like. Even it's a bug it's a minor inconvenience to me, because of this not so
troublesome workaround already described.

Re: kmail auto-completion
I have exactly the same problem as Andy reports with all my addressbooks
(which include LDAP) ... and came up with the same work around.
Reported from an up-to-date Debian testing system.

kmail auto-completion
Hi,
...since quite a while (after switching to kdepim 5.x I guess), my composer
recipient auto-completion has some minor problems.
When composing a new message and starting to type a recipient name in the
"To:" field, no auto-completion occurs (let's say I type "Mic" to search for my
colleague "Michael" - nothing happens).
*But* if I delete the typed characters again using backspace and re-type the
same string (type BS,BS,BS, M,i,c) in the To: field, auto-completion works over
all my kontact resources ("Michael" is found).
Btw - I only have CardDav/SOGo addressbooks.
Has anyone observed a similar behaviour (and solved it?).
Thanks and regards,
Andy

Also there are error logs in ~/.local/share/akonadi + ~/.xsession-errors that might reveal while those resources are unhappy. Thanks, -- Martin

Make a backup of ~/.local/share/contacts I have rolling backups plus one 'static' (replaced by a newer one manually from time to time). Anyways, I searched for *.vcf in ~/.kde and voila: /usr/oms/.kde/share/apps/kabc/std.vcf seems to hold all my contacts. kaddressbook's 'import' function from the menu worked like a charm :-) Thanks for your help - your mail inspired me to search for *.vcf.
