Sounds good. I did post a similar question in the KDE-PIM list and Ingo 
Klocker said it may be because not everything is ported over to Akonadi 
yet. Which begs the question, why make the changes to an app without making 
sure the "fix" is ready? This is really what frustrates me about major 
upgrades like this... I had a problem several years ago that required a 
different email client for awhile, so I tried an app called Pronto, but then 
they decided to make a change similar to what KDE-PIM is doing and require 
a database. Fortunately, at that time, whatever problem I'd had with KMail 
back then was resolved, but it's frustrating when major changes like this 
are made and the changes to the app are not complete when the update is 
released.
