Version: 1.10.92 (using 4.1.85 (KDE 4.1.85 (KDE 4.2 Beta2)), Kubuntu packages) Compiler: cc OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.27-10-generic column width in the header panel is not saved on session quit. quite annoying because when every column is displayed and with very strange widths (session start behaviour) it's quite unusable.
If you are refering to the Columns in the message preview pane, It works for me in 4.1.85 svn trunk r897757. If you are refering to the Message Structure Viewer, then I'm 100% it is a dup (but I can not find the bug).
Created attachment 29453 [details] screenshot I'm referring to the red marked panel. A very similar bug is on akregator (unsolved up to now), maybe the issue is the same.
Can't reproduce it with current kontact. Can you write down the exact steps to reproduce it ? However... this *seems* to be related to a regression in Qt4: a bug report has been sent to qt-bugs and it has been acknowledged by the Trolltech team. Also workaround for the problem has been committed recently (a week ago if I'm not wrong) but it might not be an universal solution...
steps to reproduce: - open kontact; - open kmail; - set your favourite view (e.g. right click on column title, "Show default columns"); - see that everything is exactly as you want it to be; - File -> Exit to close kontact; - Reopen Kontact; - reopen kmail; - see that everything is a mess.
(In reply to comment #3) > this *seems* to be related to a regression in Qt4: a bug report has > been sent to qt-bugs and it has been acknowledged by the Trolltech team. I was able to reproduce this bug until I installed qt-4.4.3-8.fc10, which was recently made available in the fedora kde-testing repository. After installing this update, I can no longer reproduce this bug.
I can confirm this. Here I have exactly the same behaviour. openSUSE 11.0 Qt: 4.4.3 KDE: 4.1.87 (KDE 4.1.87 (KDE 4.2 >= 20090101)) "release 78.2" KMail: 1.10.92
I can confirm this bug for 4.1.87, but only for KMail within Kontact. KMail started separately hasn't got this problem.
I am still seeing this for KDE 4.2.0 and Qt 4.4.3 on OpenSUSE 11.1

It still exists here on a recent kde4.2 branch version using qt 4.5_rc1... so this is not a qt issue as far as I understand.
i still can reproduce it with a recent trunk build (using qt4.5)
Its fixed in the Neon KDE-Nightly builds (KDE 4.2.63) which use QT 4.4.3 so I'd say definitely not a QT issue. kde4-config --version Qt: 4.4.3 KDE: 4.2.63 (KDE 4.2.63 (KDE 4.3 >= 20090212)) kde4-config: 1.0
SVN commit 935749 by stefanek: Qt behaviour changed again with respect to show/resize events inside kontact and it revealed another point of failure inside the column saving machinery.

This is still a problem on kde 4.3.4 and kmail 1.12.4. The column view is not saved.

This bug still exists. Is there any hope for a fix? kontact --version Qt: 4.7.2 KDE Development Platform: 4.6.5 (4.6.5) Kontact: 4.4.10 kmail --version Qt: 4.7.2 KDE Development Platform: 4.6.5 (4.6.5) KMail: 1.13.6
