Thanks Kevin and Duncan.
Finally back to it.
When I change the shortcut there is no change to kmailrc or kontactrc when 
changing the shortcut.

I did a search for changed file starting at ~ and did not seen any file with a 
[Shortcut] section changed.

The top prospect is .kde/share/apps/kontact/local-kmail.rc
Looks like config for menus.
I think this is it after removing shourtcut:
   <Separator/>
   <Action name="refresh_folder"/>
   <Separator/>

Anyone know if that it it?

If so as it's not in config will need to be more creative.

John
