See steps to reproduce. However after restart the groups get expanded, so probably just a problem with the configuration dialog showing bad data. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Kmail -> Settings -> Appearence -> Message List -> Default Aggregation 2. Configure 3. clone "Current Activity, Threaded" 4. try to set under "Groups & threading": "Group expand policy" to "Always expand groups" or "Expand recent activities" 5. OK dialog 6. Go back to configure the new aggregation type using Configure 7. under Groups & threading there is still "Never Expand Groups" Actual Results: Aggregation configuration dialog shows always Never expand groups. Expected Results: Should show the previously saved option like Always expand groups or Expand recent activities
I confirm there is a bug :)
