Problems with akonadi and kmail

[Marcelo Magno T. Sales]

People,

I'm having some problems with akonadi and kmail and would like to know 
if they are configuration problems or if I should file bugs.

I use KAddressbook embedded in Kontact. I open Kontact as soon as I log 
in and keep it always opened. Right after I open it, KAddressbook works 
as expected. However, after an hour or two, I can't see the details of 
my contacts anymore. It still displays the contacts list, but when I 
click any of them, nothing is displayed in the details pane. Also, if I 
double click them, the edit contact window is displayed with all fields 
blank.
If I close Kontact and open it again, or if I stop akonadi and start it 
again, KAddressbook will resume working. It seems akonadi stops 
responding after some time it is running, but it does not die, because 
KAddressbook knows it is running even when it cannot display the 
contacts details (when I stop akonadi, KAddressbook immediately reports 
akonadi is unavailable).

Also, even when Akonadi is not responding, kmail's autocomplete feature 
still works when I'm filling up a contact name in a new e-mail's TO: 
field. Indeed, it even suggests addresses that are not in my address 
book anymore. So, it seems the address book kmail is using is not the 
same KAddressbook is using. How can this be? I can't find any address 
book related settings in kmail configuration.

I did not create any akonadi address book manually. KAddressbook and 
Kmail are behaving like that since my addresss book was automatically 
migrated to akonadi in one of KDE's upgrades.

Thanks,

Marcelo
