It is something with KMail. Turn threading off and on and it threads messages again, but I have no idea where to start looking.
-- Regards, Rajko
in KMail. configure Kmail --> appearance pane --> select the"message list tab. on that page are most if not all ( I haven't looked for all) threading options. I think that should get you an option to have your threads open/closed etc.

That part works as expected. The problem is when I leave a folder, and come back all messages in this particular thread are just long line of messages. Changing any of threading options in Folder drop down menu brings threading back.
It is just a bug, and as Ann Wilson checked it is seems to be openSUSE related.
Do you have both of the threaded message settings in the drop down menu checked? Because unchecking the 2nd one (threading by subject) puts it back to the old way.. as in now you can change folders as you will but the threading stays .. I'm not certain why that would be tho.
I have just tried to have the thread by subject option as the one choice, and it's not available if you uncheck the "thread messages" unchecked. You may need both options, I can live w/ just the one. IF you and other folks need both options they better put a bug in the developer's collective ears then. It looks like the sort of thing that wouldn't get a high priority.... unless it's a developer's fave. That's kinda chancey so if needed I'd let them know.
Pin back your ears. There's no point in bugging the devs - it's not a KDE problem. It's a OpenSUSE problem. It does not happen in other distros. I can certainly vouch for Mandriva, Fedora, Xandros and CentOS. None of them have this problem. Anne
