Two changes which seem noteworthy from here:

## KMail Account Wizard

Fix to 21.08:
* Ensure that all created resources & agents first store the new settings data 
before reconfiguring themselves, so the data is available to everything 
reading it directly from the storage

(hm, libraries so far had not been covered if I saw, so what to do about the 
next?)
++ PIMCommon Library

Fix to 21.08:
* CreateResource class: ensure that all created resources & agents first store 
the new settings data before reconfiguring themselves, so the data is 
available to everything reading it directly from the storage


And while I seem to have made lots of other commits, there are no individual 
ones which feel highlightable from my side, as they are only interesting to 
the PIM developers if at all. Perhaps a general comment in the section of 
"Kontact" (which seems to be a generic one, not actually about the shell app 
Kontact?) could mention something about

"Existing unit tests across the different projects are being revisited and, 
where needed, are brought back in sync with actual code, to restore their 
purpose of catching regressions."

Though I still would opt for not yet mentioning unit test work and wait until 
hopefully before end of year all are back to working.
