This is off-topic on this list. For problems with specific applications, file 
bugs in bugs.kde.org and use the appropriate mailing lists (for Kontact, that 
would be kdepim-users at kde.org or if you have backtraces and careful 
experiments, kde-pim). 

This mailing list's charter is very vague, but encompasses:

- getting started with KDE development (this should go elsewhere)
- talking about specific quality assurance activities (bug triage, code 
checking) within KDE

Everything else -- in particular talking about changes to, or problems with, a 
particular application -- has other mailing lists that are better suited.
