Hi Will,

Hope you had a good holiday.

Kmail has stopped honouring my filter settings, and is sending new mail

This behaviour started when I upgraded to KDE 4.5, but for a number of
reasons this upgrade was unsatisfactory, so I am back on 4.4.4 release
8, now. Kmail is version 1.13.5

It shouldn't happen (to a vet, or a user), since there was no new KMail
release along with KDE 4.5.0 - our KDE:Distro:Factory repo's kdepim4
package is 4.4.5.

1) Did the mis-filtering stop when you reverted KDE to 4.4.4?

No

and if so,

2) Did you keep the config files used under KDE 4.5 or restore them from a
backup?

Kept the 4.5 config files.

If so, there is some regression in kdepimlibs 4.5.0.

If not, either the problem is caused by a change to your filters made by
upgrading to 4.5 that persists when the same files are used with 4.4 (see
answer to 2)) or it was a latent problem that only just manifested now for
who knows what reason.

Assuming it is still a problem, does it go away if you revert the config
files to backup (or recreate all your filters, if you don't have a
backup)?

I have a backup :) Which file in ~/.kde4/share/config/ do I need to restore.
I'm guessing it's kmailrc.

Bob
