Let's assume that one day we will be able to use addressbook entries in kmail... Now, if I make a contact group in addressbook, is it possible that when addressing an email to this group, kmail expands it immediately so that I can see who is actually on the list? To add a few more recipients if they are not in the group, or remove a few from the recipient list, if I want to skip them? This was the way pine/alpine worked, and it was really a nice and useful feature. Apropos alpine: yesterday I have set up kmail to use my mailbox as a disconnected imap account. Now when I start alpine, it complains: [>Can't initialize "{imap.server.com:993/ssl/user=username/novalidate- cert}Addressbook" (invalid format)<] [>First msg in "{imap.server.com:993/ssl/user=username/novalidate- cert}Addressbook" should have "x-pine-addrbook" header<] [Can't contact remote address book server, using cached copy] Was it kmail that messed up my addressbook? If so, this is the final good-bye to kmail - I can't afford the risk of messing up my emails due to an unstable software. Any idea how to restore it?
