Doh! Found it though the questions you asked. (below for posterity) Attempting to stop KMail from hanging I had changed: Properties for KMail (Kicker) Application Advanced Options DCOP registration: {to Multiple Instances} Changing DCOP back to ‘Run Until Finished’ stopped the pop-up.

I should have thought of that :( michael@local [~/data/trash]# nice -n 2 kmail -caption "%c" %i %m [TDE NM Backend ERROR] [/build/tdelibs-trinity-L9cG7r/tdelibs-trinity-14.0.9/tdecore/tdehw/networkbackends/network-manager/network-manager.cpp:1706] Attempting to access the network-manager VPN service returned: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.VPN.Plugin was not provided by any .service files WeaverThreadLogger: thread (ID: 1) suspended.

Oddly it just brings up Composer with no KMail main window. %i and %m are in the first two To: lines. michael@local [~/data/trash]# nice -n 2 kmail -caption "%c" brings up only the main window.
