Version: 1.11.0 (using 4.1.87 (KDE 4.1.87 (KDE 4.2 >= 20090101)), Gentoo) Compiler: i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.28-zen2-IBM-T43-dirty Whenever I start kontact I have to change the column settings in kmail: They show all the columns. When I quit kontact and relaunch it, the same again. However when I just start kmail, change the column ui settings, close and start kmail again, its fine. maybe this issue is similar to: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=176262
I can confirm this bug, same issue with me.
