When I open up Kontact, for some reason Kontact and Kmail open up in seperate windows instead of the same window. I am using Kontact for KDE 4.1, and I have been for a while with out this problem but it just started for some reason. When I try and open the configuration window for Kontact it just crashes so changing anything that way is out of the question. I have not yet checked in KDE’s bugzilla to see if this is a known problem or not will do so after I send this.

Well I found a way to get around the crash when trying to configure kontact and I couldn’t believe what I saw, or more like didn’t see, but the configuration options for Kmail are missing from Kontact (see image). http://img99.imageshack.us/img99/4674/configurekontactod1.th.png](http://img99.imageshack.us/my.php?image=configurekontactod1.png)
So it looks like the problem is just in my Kontact settings, does anyone know how to fix them or where they are so I can remove them and have Kontact configure a new settings? I know that there is a ~/.kde4/share/config/kontactrc, but is there anymore that I need to be aware of so I can remove them?
i had the same problem
i installed the latest version of kontact and every things is working properly now.

Yea I updated all my KDE 4.1 packages, still no go until I started getting the Password Dialog every 30 minutes saying Kmail wants to access my wallet that was the dead give away to my problem, I did a pgrep on Kmail and found out that even though I didn’t launch Kmail it was running in the background I killed that and now everything works again. What really threw me off was that KDE 4.1 was reopening Kmail in the background after logout/logins and even system reboots. Oh well at least I know the session manager works XD.
