All my other Fedora installations are fine - it's just this one virtual machine that's having the issue. I'll have to get that version when I get to the office - I'm pretty sure it's the most recent available. One peculiarity of my installation, is that I have multiple locations from where I work, and I have things set up for one machine to get my mail and delete, only after 7 days; all other machines are set to leave messages on the server. Sometimes, that seems to throw Kmail for a loop, especially when I bring up a new machine (I don't know for sure that this is related to the multiple machines, but read on if you have the time).I get an error message about Kmail not being able to handle UIDL - that seems to happen when I have a large volume of messages to download, AND, I have regular mail checking turned on; my theory is that the new machine gets part way through downloading the two or three thousand messages that are available and then an auto mail check kicks in and that throws the machine for a loop since it's trying to do two mail check/downloads at once - I postulate this because I've found that turning off interval mail checking on a new machine I bring up, or on a machine that's been turned off for a long time, will usually cure this. When the above happens, my machines slow to a crawl and become nearly unresponsive, but not completely - kmail will essentially become useless, but other programs continue to function though very slowly; in the situation I'm having now, the entire machine locks up and responds to nothing - it is so frozen that I can't even force a shutdown, and I have to log off from Vista in order to shut down my virtual machine - it's pretty messy. Thanks for responding - I hope the detail above doesn't make you sorry you did ;-) -- Claude Jones Brunswick, MD, USA -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
