Just throw in my experiences here: I was used to kmail for several years but as this does not work on windows I slowly switched to thunderbird. The last month I almost completely switched to thunderbird on Linux as well. Kmail is a little bit faster and has some mail functions (like sieve configuration) and is little better on shortcut but calendar and address book integration is better For folder based Identity I installed a plugin called folder_account which implements the missing feature. Currently I only miss the possibility to set account specific language. As I rely on a plugin for my PIM Server (SOGo) I have to use Thunderbird revision 3 and it is really sad that fedora switched to the new fast switching mozilla strategy (which is a wrong decision in my humble opinion). So I have to patch and recompile fedora 14 version of Thunderbird 3 by myself. Sogo will switch to the new thunderbird stuff with the long term versions end of january. I tried the official thunderbird version but I had several problems in opening attachments (I have to select programs first instead of thunderbird looking up the configured programs). For me this is not a major problem (it is annoying) but for others in my family it is hard to know that the program for opening MS-word files is called oowriter (or what ever) and located in /usr/bin. regards Martin > > Anne > _______________________________________________ > kde mailing list > kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kde > New to KDE4? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org _______________________________________________ kde mailing list kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kde New to KDE4? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org
