That's interesting.  I've also been using Pan for many years
on KDE, currently on KDE5/Plasma, BUT I use FreeBSD, currently
on 11.2-RELEASE-p4.  I've had a few issues in the past, all
traced back to other libraries such as gmime and glib.  I've
never seen the issue you describe, which kinda implies it's
something outside of Pan.

Maybe during close-down, something sets or corrupts the columns
widths during the save of the preferences.xml?
