Been through that cycle once already.  :(

I gave up when I realised that I was spending too much time trying to make 
Claws behave like ... Kmail!  O_O

Anyway, I noticed that a KDE machine which is using MySQL as a backend for 
Akonadi is not showing any contacts in its address book.  All other boxen use 
sqlite3 instead and they do not seem to have any noticeable problems.

Could this be a MySQL issue?

PS.  All of these PCs run stable KDE.
