It went surprisingly well. KMail continued to exhibit some flakiness after that, but it was much improved. I've been slowly working through various issues, and it's getting better and better (knock on wood). The random changing of message-counts in various folders has finally stopped. It's getting faster and faster as I go along. I'm typing this message in KMail as a matter of fact. The "Blue bubbles mesage screen in lieu of a list of a list of messages, has appeared less and less - parenthetically, one folder that is still seemingly unable to display is my "Sent-mail" folder - it shows the bubbles screen with the "Retrieving folder contents - please wait" message. Otherwise, KMail is getting back to its former responsiveness - my junk mail filters are working well, clicking through messages rapidly no longer crashes it, and most folder promptly pop the list of messages in the view pane... We'll see. -- Claude Jones Brunswick, MD, USA _______________________________________________ kde mailing list kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kde New to KDE4? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org
