Version: 4.2 RC1 (using Devel) Compiler: gcc (GCC) 4.1.2 20070214 ( (gdc 0.24, using dmd 1.020)) (Gentoo 4.1.2 p1.1) OS: Linux The first time I started Kontact, KMail showed a fairly similar-to-4.1 message list (with the addition of day categories). The second time, after a crash of Kontact, it is showing a two-line (subject+status, sender+date) style. Defaults should be consistent.
I saw this working correctly several times
