Version: 1.11.2 (using 4.2.2 (KDE 4.2.2), Kubuntu packages) Compiler: cc OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.28-11-generic Changes of the language in the composer via settings -> Spellchecker are not persistent. Upon quitting and relaunching kmail, default settings are active again. Similarly, view columns -> total in the folder list on the left has the effect to show the number of items in each folder. However, upon quitting and relaunching these figures are not present anymore. Older versions of kmail did not have this behavior. Unsure whether these are purposeful features. Machine is IBM Thinkpad T43 with 512 M Ram. Best regards Martin
> Similarly, view columns -> total This part is fixed. (the fix will be in KDE 4.3) The first part is not a bug: If you want to change the spellchecker settings globally, you have to change it in systemsettings/Regional & Language/Spell Checker
