If I start a kde program, kterminal or even licq before starting kmail, then kmail will not start properly. If I do that, kmail will not show it self on the screen and I have to kill every process that seems related to kde. But if I start kmail first, then everything will work fine. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.start licq or kterminal before kmail 2. 3. Actual Results: kmail will not become visible Expected Results: kmail should become visible and functional.

For sure some local problem, not a KDE bug.
