Bug#546489: kmail: Localisation flaw cannot be corrected by folder renaming.

This should be reported upstream at bugt.kde.org, Product: i18n, Component: 
de, since it is no kmail bug. However, I do not know how wrong "teached" 
really is but "versendete" is correct here although used rarely.
(I might be wrong though :))

duden.de
1. ver|sen|den <unr. V.; versandte/(seltener:) versendete, hat 
versandt/(seltener:) versendet>
