It may be as simple as telling kmail to get NEW mail from the spool

to use the spool directories for incoming and the user home directory
"mail" directory for storing the mail folders for imap. That chunk
of documentation is not particularly trying. I managed to solve it.
I think it involved a one liner:
MAIL=/home/xxx/mail:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/xxx
Problems there. With that line in Dovecot doesn't start - error:
expecting "="
I tried putting spaces around the '=' and now it says 'Unknown setting:
MAIL'
I'll comment it out until I/we can work out the adjustment.

Sorry - that one goes into the /etc/profile file. Mea culpa and all that.
