Version: 1.11.0 (using 4.2.00 (KDE 4.2.0), Arch Linux) Compiler: gcc OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.28-ARCH Assuming that you have set up at least one identity and SMTP account, do the following: Settings->Configure Kmail...->Accounts->"Sending" tab -> double click the account -> change the name to something else, click OK. KMail says you that the Identity "xy" has been changed according to this setting. Click OK. Now you can see the SMTP account overview again. The name of the account has NOT changed. (maybe in the background, and just the widget didn't refresh) closing and opening the Settings window shows the new name. AND, under Identities->Advanced->"Special transport" the name did not change as well, it's the old one. Shouldn't be hard to fix this IMO. (but I don't know C++/Qt)
It works for me. I use KDE4.2.2, KMail 1.11.2 on a Gentoo box.
