           Summary: Profile selection in message editor is not working
           Product: kmail
           Version: 1.12.4
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: spillner at kde.org


Version:           1.12.4 (using 4.3.4 (KDE 4.3.4), Debian packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.31-1-amd64

I've set up about a dozen profiles over time, each with a unique mail address.
Through several config migrations and roaming across machines, it seems that
kmail config reading creates an inconsistency: The profiles are shown without
problem in the settings, but the message editor only shows an input line
instead of a combo box. (There used to be a combo box in previous versions.)
The effect is that when I want to switch between profiles I've got to manually
change the from address, which doesn't autocomplete, so the chances of typing
the address the wrong way is significant.

I'm sure that the from address selection should invariably always be a(n
editable) combo box, so no matter how much my config has degenerated into a
binary blob, it should still work.
