Thanks for thinking about this. Running 'dcopserver' yields: > --------------------------------- > It looks like dcopserver is already running.

Non the less following the proposal of the program ('rm /home/USER/.DCOPserver_iluvatar__0') and restarting kontact yields the following error: "Could not start process for newimaps." Any further insights?

I'd try running `dcopserver` in a terminal, and seeing what it says. (Either "already running", "error" or nothing, at a guess. If it says nothing, then try running Kontact again) Johannes Graumann wrote: > Hello, > > For quite some while now I'm happily using ion2 on my debian unstable > system.
