           Summary: forgets read articles after crash
           Product: knode
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: sam at glendale.org.uk


Version:           4.3.3 (using 4.3.3 (KDE 4.3.3), Gentoo)
Compiler:          x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.24-gentoo-r4

This is a 'feature' that crops up when another bug causes kontact/knode to
crash. The list of news articles which have been read only seem to persisted
when kontact is closed nicely. If the application isn't closed properly (i.e.
it crashes), then on re-opening it displays all previously read articles as
unread.

Given my usage habits Kontact is more likely to shutdown due to a crash (maybe
a couple of times a month), than me logging out.

It would be nice if read status was persisted at other times (e.g., leaving a
group). Possibly it is, and something else is causing articles to be marked as
unread after a crash, but this seems to be the likely reason.
