Please understand I really like KDE and kmail/kontact was my first

Your opinion, but certainly not mine. If you need specific advice on
kmail + imap, the place to get it is on the kde-pim list. It's generally
helpful.
One needs advice when the lack is in the user. If the lack is in the
software, that takes developers to sort out.
Just a thought, Andy. If you have a problem and linuxmaillists and I don't,
does that mean that the lack is in the software?
*big gallic shrug*
My experiences are that stock, unmeddled-with KMail terminates abruptly
sometimes on my setup, blocks the UI while it repeatedly fetches stuff
from the server on folder selection, where Thunderbird multitasks and is
highly stable. Therefore I don't use KMail any more. I actually tried
it the other week because I hankered after the gpg sig handling it used
to give me but it still broke after five minutes. Fresh-installed Apps
blowing chunks and terminating on an otherwise stable platform is an app
issue, as is the UI blocking and alleged repeated folder fetching.
Great that you have a better experience, but for sure your experience
does not negate mine any more than mine negates yours.
