[Evolution] preferences don't stick

[jeff <jeffv op net>]

Greetings.
I'm using Evolution 1.0.5 under KDE on Debain installed by Knoppix (is
that enough for you? :)

I've noticed that some of my settings don't seem to stick between
logins.  Hide Deleted Messages, Preview Pane, and large icons in
Shortcuts revert each time I open Evolution.  Am I missing something?

I've gone through the FAQ's, Knowledgebase, and gnomecc, all with no
luck.

Suggestions welcome.

Thanks,
Jeff

P.S. Not knowing about programming, is it a big deal to be able to drag
messages directly to folder shortcuts?
