Or, are you trying to adjust > using the wrong "bar"? ---- as is typical of all the 'kde' things (kmail, akregator, etc.), the left panel does indeed use a vertical column divider that's hard to locate but if you pass the mouse slowly, you will see <||> which indicates that click & hold will adjust the column width. Also, the O... and Sent and Dr... simply indicate what will actually fit in the column where the ellipses is used to indicate more. If you just widen the window, the column will self adjust anyway. This isn't rocket science and it's clear that the KDE programs actually anticipate that the user can figure this out by his/her self. Perhaps the KDE suite doesn't design their UI to the lowest common denominator that is seemingly incapable of deducing how to use their standard panels.
