This happened again.  I'm still running the same 3.4.1-1 version of
KDE as I was in June, and between then and now, my kmailrc acquired
the following line:

recent-encodings=iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1,iso-8859-1

which causes kmail to crash when inserting a file into a message.
