I have the current KDE in Sid, and I do see "Recent Addresses" first.

However, if I scroll up the window I see "Other Addresses", which lists the
addresses in kaddressbook. It seems to remember the section I was in last
when I compose another message.

I see nothing in the Kmail configuration that can change this behavior.
