Yes, please :-) I got flamed over this by my wife who tried to use KMail 
yesterday as a new user. She has used KMail before for some time, but her 
configuration was in another KDEHOME directory so it obviously wasn't picked 
up. (I wasn't home so I couldn't tell her)

Anyway, the complaint she has is that after typing a rather long message she 
tried to send it, and got a messagebox stating that she should set "somekind 
of server" (I guess the text in the messagebox could be written in some 
easier language) She did that, but after doing so there was no way she could 
actually use this server for the mail she had already written. So she had to 
throw away the mail (!!) and write it again. This is pretty bad. I'm afraid 
it will take weeks before I can convince her to try KMail again :-P

She suggested that if there had been a "Save" option, it would have sucked a 
lot less. (Wasn't there someone working already on a "Draft" folder?)

Cheers,
Waldo
