As KMail has stopped working for me for outgoing mail, I thought I'd try Thunderbird and Evolution. This has made me realize how much I prefer KMail. Setting up Tbird and Evolution was a nightmare, each taking about an hour and a half. Having followed the advice to let Tbird set things up "automatically", I found it extremely difficult to correct the bizarre choices made by the "wizard". (Eg changing from POP - evolution's choice - to imap involved a complicated journey through several menus.) To add to my misery, some bright spark has altered the place were settings are to be found, from Tools to Edit, making the documentation (which does not seem to have been changed) more or less useless. Let me only say that setting up Evolution was even worse. Returning to KMail's Settings=>Configure KMail is like entering a realm of order and sanity. If only the KMail developers could get it working properly, and then give up on trying to "improve" it. -- Timothy Murphy gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
