           Summary: When attach picture or document to email (kmail),
                    directory choice has initial capital letter and
                    directory is empty.
           Product: kmail
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general

Version:            (using KDE 4.0.1)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
Compiler:          gcc (GCC) 4.2.3 (Ubuntu 4.2.3-2ubuntu7) 
OS:                Linux

When I try to attach a picture or file to an email (using kmail), the selection of directories presented are not directories, but names like Pictures, Documents, etc., which have no relation to my system.  The up and down arrows cause the cursor to jump around unpredictably.  And everything has an initial letter capitalized, which is BS.

Can be worked around by typing directory name.  File completion does work.

gqview is similarly afflicted when changing directories.  

This is a new update from kubuntu 7.10 to 8.04.  Can't figure out which version of kde I have -- kde --version doesn't work.
