Decided to upgrade to KDE 4.8.2 yesterday hoping that some of the problems 
I've been having with 4.7.4 would be fixed, but it doesn't look like it. 
Emails are still not being filtered - I'm now seeing unread emails in my 
wastebin - I get the "please wait" message in KMail more often and setting up 
the sorting of each mail box doesn't seem to stick.

Let's hope that by the time 4.9 comes out all these problems will have been 
fixed.
