KMail does not remember message list panel columns and their order: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=183515 Headers of columns of which contents are icons should be icons too: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=183517 Wrong message is selected when thread is deleted: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=183923 KMail does not honor font settings for message list panel: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=178402 Changes are needed in the way KMail handles deletion of threaded messages: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14060 If you people are experiencing one of theses issues, please add your comments and vote for the bugs.
