Ugh, that is really broken! The last time the distribution list mechanism 
changed, they provided a migration tool to do the conversion. But this time 
they even HAVE a migration tool (the Akonadi migration tool) and didn't make 
it convert things properly? This kind of disregard to user data (and 
configuration is data) really needs to stop (it's not the first time a KDE 
app just ignores configuration from older versions, unfortunately).
