Once every 3 or 4 moons, the kmail config gets changed despite. the 4 "sticky" buttons in the editors upper right corner being checked.
I have reached a conclusion that somehow, my hunt-n-pecking ancient fingers have triggered a hot-key sequence that does this. Its been a problem since kde2 here.
I don't know if thats the case, but where is the tde storage of this hot-key data for kmails composer?
IMO, if the sticky bit is set, it should be locked, requiring the sticky bit to be intentionally turned off before one of those 4 options at the top of the composer screen can be changed. But that isn't the case, its been changed without a conscious action on my part, probably 70 or more times in the past 20 years. Probably by my fat fingering, but that should be disallowed by any method if the sticky bit it set. It is not protected despite the sticky bit being displayed as checked.
You lost me Gene. My kmail composer window has one sticky check box which controls whether the identity sticks. If I hover over it the tooltip confirms this. What are these 4 sticky buttons you refer to?

In the View menu, it is possible to turn on other items, which can also have sticky switches - Dictionary, Sent-mail folder and Mail transport.
Gene, is it possible that these are the items you have displayed there?
Cheers
Well, I learned another new thing today; that the View menu exists in the composer window, and what it controls. This will help with my struggle with mail protocols and bounced mail, I think? If I set "reply-to" to my email address, then "unview" it, it should correct that problem?

But, no; there seems to be no way to make Composer remember the value for "Reply to". :-(
