Hi, Using sid. > Every times I open Kmail, the "list" part of the main window, "subject", > "senders", "date", are crammed to the left. Just to the point you can't read > anything meaningful. For instance all subjects are restricted to "Re:...". I only see this issue sometimes when I plug an external monitor than restart without the monitor available. > But the main point is, mouse-sliding the column separators, works only until > you close the window: every time it is closed and then opened back again, > the modifications I made to the column width are lost, and everything is > again in its unreadable configuration. > > Every times I open Kmail after logging, it opens in full-screen.

I also did another try the size of Kontact in general and also the columns width is restored correctly. Maybe you need to remove your current session to restart with a fresh one. I have different session artifacts, like apps get started again and again, but I also close them. > I usually have two konsole windows. One of them is restored correctly but > not the other one. That point might be related to my using two monitors, > though. I cannot reproduce, as I don't have two monitors attached to my computer. > There is the poor session tab management of okular, which "could" be > related, or not (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=335852). Don't use okular that much, so I normal don't have okular open when restarting. > All those points really hinder the usability of the desktop, because, when > you have papers arranged on you desk, you expect them to be at the same > place when you come back the next day.

Please search for upstream bugs and if there are non please create them https://bugs.kde.org. I would place them at ksmserver, as it is mostly likely that this has the issues.If there are patches we can backport them to Debian. Regards hefee
