That was it!  Thanks

If you only have the command line at hand 'du' is a good tool as
well.

My /home is filling up and I need to decide what can go.
The problem is that I can't remember the name of the
utility that shows me which directories are taking up most
disk space.  Can someone remind me, please?

I often use du -h --max-depth=1 to get a quick read on what
subdirectories are hogging space.  By limiting the depth, the
report doesn't get overwhelming.  If necessary, I'll drill down in
a particular subdirectory.


du -sh *

is easier to type. :-)

It seems that indirectly the KMail2 problems are causing my lack of
space.  I have the akonadi DB, but then Thunderbird is taking up a
whopping 53.4GB!   Desperate decisions are needed :-(


cd .thunderbird
du -sh *


Keep digging down until you find where gigabytes of space are being used. Most likely in ImapMail under your profile directory.
