There is no UI way to set the outbox for an identity; one may only choose the
sent-mail folder, the drafts folder and the templates folder. I couldn't find
the identities in kmail2rc, so I don't even know how to do it with non-UI.
Nevertheless, I checked those folders on all identities, and there was one
anomaly (probably a remainder from the problem reported in [1]) -- one
identity (which I haven't used for sending in years) had its "sent-folder" set
to a sub-folder of inbox. I set it straight, and things seem to be normal now.

Thanks,
Shai.
PS: This still makes me very uncomfortable: If KMail2's config can be easily
broken in ways that lead to data loss -- and by "easily" I mean "without user
intervention" -- is there a way to run a "health check"?
I don't feel it is right to close this bug without understanding what happened
and how it can be prevented, so I'm not closing it myself; but I won't object
if you guys decide to close it.
Shai.
