When you normally run a dcop command like the one you used it, the ICE authority key for the current user is searched. Because this is a different user than the one under which KMail is running, you need to handle it. If the user under which the backup is running has sufficient privileges, you can try adding the --all-users --all-sessions parameters for dcop. Cheers -- Slávek
