Yeah it looks mucht better! But actually I have two issues


File Attachment: Screen shot - before

    why you removed Maximum number of recipient editor lines?


File Attachment: Screen shot - after, normal build

    This is a new feature, or why this isn't visible before?
    Why this should be limited? I think only warning would be better.

> The "Configure KMail - Composer - General" dialogue tab has probably been much added to over time, and now resembles the aftermath of an explosion in a checkbox factory.  None of the spin boxes or buttons near the bottom line up, and there is inconsistent punctuation.

> This revised layout uses group boxes to split the options up into categories, and lines up the buttons and spin boxes using grid layouts internal to the group boxes.  All widgets have a tool top and what's this text - most useful for some of the more obscure options, e.g. the new "Improve plain text..." option.
