I'm using KMail 1.9.10/KDE 3.5.10. Here I always get $HOME as default. I 
have checked the code. KMail does not do anything special, i.e. this 
seems to be the default behavior of KFileDialog. Unfortunately, 
http://api.kde.org appears to be down atm, so I cannot check the 
documentation.

Maybe KDE respects an environment variable. Check for environment 
variables that are set to $HOME/Documents.

Ingo
