But I'm still slightly puzzled by the fact that if I run dovecot/imap on a remote host then - sometimes at least - as I click on each email in KMail I get the dreaded message "Retrieving Folder Contents" and have to wait for 20 seconds or more (sometimes for ever) before I can read the email. This never happens with a local imap server. I must admit this seems much better now than it used to be, so I shall start trying a remove server again; though the "replication" option sounds rather attractive. -- Timothy Murphy gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin _______________________________________________ kde mailing list kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kde New to KDE4? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org
