Since no one confirmed this bug for six months, I suspect the original bug report is not understood. So I'd like to explain it another way, which hopefully will make it more clear.

I will use these notations (Chinese Pinyin actually) in the following explanation:
NIAN: the word for 'year' in Chinese
YUE: 'month' in Chinese
RI: 'day' in Chinese
XINGQI XXX: 'weekday' , In Chinese we say XINGQI {YI, ER, SAN, SI, WU, LIU, RI} instead of Monday through Sunday.

The date line generated by kmail is: (SHIYI is 'eleven' in Chinese)
    XINGQI SAN 29 SHIYI YUE 2006 11:17
What I want (and most Chinese likes) is: (better without spaces)
   2006 NIAN 11 YUE 29 RI XINGQI SAN 11:17

So the difference is about both ordering and wording, and I gave 2 suggestions:
1. generate %D according to kde-control-center "date and time formats" settings 
2. Offer macros like %y, %m, %d, %w (for year number, month number, day number, weekday phrase, respectively). This is actually repeating the functionality provided in kde-control-center.
