Bug#237299: kmail: Editing messages in drafts only saves to dead.letter

[Kjetil Kjernsmo <kjetil@kjernsmo.net>]

Package: kmail
Version: 4:3.2.1-1
Severity: normal

I have just noted that if I try to edit a message that is in the 
"drafts" folder (and has been there since before todays upgrade to 
3.2.1), by right-clicking and selecting "Edit Message", it will 
sometimes just disappear, later to be refound in ~/dead.letter.  

It has happened to me 2 of 4 times now... It is thus not fully 
reproducible... :-(

However, it is still reporting:
"appending message to ~/dead.letter.tmp"
every few minutes on my console now, even though it has been some time 
since I last tried. Pretty weird, eh...?

Allthough I can't find any error messages, and have difficulties  
reproducing it, I figured I might as well report it, since it is a bit 
scary.
