I also tried to use contact groups (alias distribution lists). I have two
issues with them:

1. If I want to create such a list within Kmail's button "Save list..." in the
mail editor I have a list within kaddressbook, but all recipients are created
as new contacts with name and email only even if I have all recipients and
mails already in the addressbook (I have two "Personal Contacts" ressources in
akonadi pointing to two directories with vcard3 single files as respective
sources)

2. If I create a contact group manually in kaddressbook issue 1 does not
appear. But when I want to use such a contact group as recipient of a new
email, kmail actually do not use these emails. Instead the email is sent to
"Testitout at robby-travelmate-6292" ("contact group name at local host name")


about my system:
Kubuntu 10.10
Qt 4.7.0
PIM Version 4.6 beta4
KMail Version 2.0.89
KAddressBook Version 4.6 beta4


I hope my mal-behaviour description fits this bug? Otherwise I can post it
separately?
For me, distribution lists is a quite essential feature for an email programm.
Thus the priority level should be reconsidered?
