Unfortunately, the only entries in the Recent Addresses are just that. There 
is nothing that is that old. There are no distributions lists in there either.

Well, there are a number of reported bugs on that site, but unfortunately, 
they seem to be fairly old. The ones that seems to have the most relevance is:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=247105
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=228446
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=226320
But nothing more recent (searched bugs.kde.org for distribution list in 
kdepim). I can't believe that no one else has raised a bug report for this 
problem, it's quite a serious one (in my eyes).
