[Bug 643248] [NEW] kmail problems with kaddressbook - what is used for autocomplete, how to edit it

Where kmail stores it's addresses for auto completion?

This is very confusing.

Config option in kmail just shows "Resource" (in the button to configure
autocompletion order), which does not match any name of the address
books in kaddressbook.

It seems std.vcf is used from kabc .kde folder - but just sometimes...
now adding more contacts with emails does not make kmail use them in
autocompletion.

Also in kaddress book there are like 5 different formats of address
books, they can have subfolders of various formats, can be remote or
local, synchronized, etc etc... wtf? People usually just need A one
address book. That works well with kmail. That kmail can write into, and
that kmail can use for autocompletion.  Neither of this 2 functions work
in my installation. Problems first started after migration to luci with
some akonadi db troubles (few bugs reported there got resolved) and
since then kmail have trouble using address book.
