Version: (using KDE KDE 3.4.0) Installed from: Compiled From Sources Each time I change settings (I often switch SMTP server, but only that) I get my mails resorted! I usualy sort my mails in descending date order (column [Date ^]). And then after applying settings, I get my mails sorted in the revert order (column [Date v]) and should click 3 times to get it back. I don't know if it's the alone settings to be reseted when applying. Perhapse other settings get randomly reseted too.
I cannot confirm this with KMail 1.8.2.

I tried reproducing this bug on KMail from KDE 4.1.1 but everything seemed to work normally. The sorting order didn't change on changing my smtp server settings. Is this problem still reproducible for you?
Closing this now as it seems to be fixed. Please reopen if you're still having this bug.
