Thank you. Though I believe the indices are located in my ~/Mail directory, 
not up in the hidden configuration files. (I agree with whomever it was 
who said it's nuts to put the actual mail itself up among the config 
files. Apparently it wasn't always that way, in that my mail directory is 
down among user files because it inherited it from KDE-1.x days. lot of 
stuff that has been here for 25 years or more.)

Strangely, since I complained about it, KMail and ProtonMail/Bridge have 
been playing nicely together. So it could be that the people at Proton 
took a look and saw something and fixed it.So for now I'm going to keep my 
fingers crossed rather than experiment.
