            Bug ID: 318613
           Summary: kmail forgets application association after restart
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.9.5
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: config dialog
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: abrahams at acm.org

I have a message with an attached .wav file.  When I attempt to open the
attachment, I get a dialog that asks me to choose an application.  I choose
Dragon Player and then ask kmail to remember the association.  Then Dragon
Player opens the .wav file, as it should.   If I close Dragon Player and again
click on the attachment, kmail2 remembers that Dragon Player is my chosen
association -- as it should.

But if I now close kmail2 and restart it, the association has been forgotten,
and I again have to go through the dialog to choose Dragon Player.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to open an attachment to an incoming message.
2. Choose an application and ask that the association be remembered.
3. Use the selected application to examine the attachment.
4. Open the attachment again.   kmail2 now offers to use the selected
application to open the attachment.
5. Close and reopen kmail2.
6. Try again to open the attachment.  kmail2 has forgotten the association.


Expected Results:  
After the restart, kmail should remember the association and offer to use it.
