folder identities don't "stick"

[art alexion]

Binary package hint: kdepim

I have been having problem with the folder identities that I set, "sticking". I subscribe to some lists with my gmail account. I keep setting the list folders to the gmail identity, but they keep reverting to the alexion.com identity, which is the default identity set for kmail as a whole in the identities tab. I have gmail set as the identity for the account (in the account settings, Advanced tab), and Use Default Identity is unchecked and I choose gmail, but it keeps reverting to alexion.com. This happens after a period of time while kmail is running. I don't need to close and restart kmail for the reversion to occur, but it is not instantaneous.

By the way, I tried to use apport to report this but apport crashes. kmail is stable as far as crashes, it is just this configuration saving problem..

Hi there!

Thanks for reporting this bug! Your bug seems to be a problem with the KDE program itself, and not with our KDE packages. While we appreciate your issue, it would be better if it was tracked at https://bugs.kde.org, so that the KDE developers can deal with this speedily and have direct communication with you as the reporter for more effective debugging.

Thanks!
