Thanks, that's what I thought ... :)
I checked that like 5 times before posting my question, and I checked again
now. One of the accounts was set to the wrong identity --- and Trash is now
the only folder I can configure on the advanced tab.
What happened to Sent, Drafts and Templates?
(Not that I would want to configure this; instead I would rather have kmail
use these folders automatically in the right accounts and only configure them
if I want to. Getting my emails all messed up by the MUA putting them into
the wrong folders even across accounts is really something I don't need.
And the concept of identities is bullshit; I'm just using different email
accounts for different purposes. That doesn't have anything to do with my
identity; my identity is not something I would reveal to anyone and especially
not to the whole world by sending emails or otherwise. It's what leads to
everything being messed up in the first place because if I could just use
different email accounts, this wouldn't happen to begin with. Maybe it's for
people who don't know who they are or who are suffering from some kind of
mental illness ...)
