The only way I found was to killall kontact; thunderbird & As an aside, I found a long time ago that it was important to be mail client indifferent - they way I do that is to have a local imap server running and always use that for any local mail store instead of the mail clients native store - that way I only need to export/import the current contact list - and start a new client initiate 2 accounts, 1 to the ISP and one to the local imap server and we're 100% back in business.
