           Summary: Emails being composed are no longer autosaved, and
                    lost on Kmail/Kontact shutdown.
           Product: kmail
           Version: 1.13.1
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: kde.bugs at swedeheart.net


Version:           1.13.1 (using 4.4.1 (KDE 4.4.1), Kubuntu packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.31-20-generic

Open up a new email composer window. Begin composing an email. Turn off
Kontact, or request computer shutdown. What I expect (because this was the case
up until recently- *possibly* post 4.4, but definitely earlier) is that when
you log back in and the session is restored (successfully bringing back
everything else, such as browser tabs) or when Kontact is loaded again, is that
not only will the main window open, but so will any emails I was in the process
of composing.

But no, not any more, they are simply lost. No trace in the drafts folder.

Autosave interval is set, non-zero, and I have made sure I have waited, just in
case, for the autosaver interval to pass before logging off/shutting down.
Makes no difference.

This is a regression that causes data loss.
