Hmm - I've avoided that setting, as I didn't feel sure of what it does.  For 
instance, I have 'Open threads that contain new, unread...... threads'.  If 
'List only open folders' means that only these folders are listed, copying and 
moving messages would be a problem.

However,  having re-started kmail, nothing looks any different.  Does that 
imply that we are not talking about the display, but how much reading kmail 
does for every transaction?

OK.  This is the first message to go out under the new setting.  I'll see what 
happens over the next few hours.
