By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description Russell Brown 2017-03-07 05:32:24 CST 
Using kiosk, if I set kdeglobals to immutable (put [$i] at the top of the file), kmail clears all of a users email filters when it's stopped and restarted.

It's in the loading phase that the problem occurs; kmailrc has a filter section when it terminates but this is cleared on load if kdeglobals is immutable.

Not all kmail settings are effected.

I'm also seeing the same thing with some korganizer settings.

Possibly related, setting:

[KDE Action Restrictions][$i]
run_command=false

in kdeglobals does *NOT* prevent users creating filters that run a command. This means it's dead easy to construct a kmail filter that fires up an xterm on receipt!
