I have been living with this bug for years, but I have avoided it by simply copying complete config files (?mail*rc from one context to another over several distro releases and several kde versions.
Just today, I needed to set up a new account on a KUbuntu Karmic and a SUSE 11.2 (that is, brand new) clients. That meant I had no config files to copy, and had to do it the "proper" way. Bugger me, but the sodding bug is still there, well over two years since it was first reported, and the same manual fix I reported years ago is still the only way to sort it. I do fix bugs in open source software. (I even had two lines of code in the kernel for a while, back in the 2.4 days. :) However, I know that there is a hell of a long lead time to get into a new project. This seems to be such a trivial problem that someone who is up to speed should be able to sort it with a few minutes' work, whereas I would need a while to track down the source of the problem a while sort it, and then weeks of endless hassle to get my fix accepted into the main source tree: so I am just not going down that route!
