Package: kmail
Version: 4:3.5.6.dfsg.1-1
Severity: grave
Justification: causes non-critical data loss

KMail writes the address book file at every shutdown, overwriting any
changes that may have happened in between. I can reproduce it every
time with an address book located on an NFS share. It does not occur
with the local address book.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Start kmail.
2. Start kaddressbook.
3. Modify some contact in the address book.
4. Close the address book.
5. Exit kmail.

Now open kaddressbook again and check that the changes have been lost.

Perhaps it is a locking issue...

Please fix your fam/gamin to actually work then. libkabc relies on this to 
work properly.

You noticed yourself in a earlier mail that it was your gamin that can't 
monitor your files. 

I consider this issue fixed.

How may I log from the clock?

From Outlook Express 4.2 you never have to save the RW cache for unmounting a 
directory of the TCP/IP tool.
