Only a month ago was kmail used for the first time in a new user area on that machine and no other user on the machine was using kmail, and the way it was initiated was that kmail was fired up and a new pop account to a remote mail server set up. Address book entries were imported from an ldif file from another system, and a few setting changes made, with some additional folders set for local storage. That was it. The system was working perfectly until the kde update to 4.4 and then a day later the mail went south big time. Others have commented that if kmail was running at the time of the update this may have mattered - if that is the case then the update was flawed in its design. The system should have continued to run and when kmail was restarted it should have "just worked" - it did not. It is possible that only one or two people had any problem at all with their updates and were running kmail during their update, and maybe the few who reported in this forum were the only ones that had any problems at all! (Tongue removed from cheek!) Anyway perhaps someone will find out what happened to the few is us "corner cases" id due course. -- View this message in context: http://n3.nabble.com/KMail-Akonadi-mess-tp415121p420876.html Sent from the Fedora Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
