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 :))
