a good solution is to not use mbox style mail folders. When KDE 3 hits Debian kmail will be able to use mh, maildir, etc. Theoretically kmail could even use a dbase for storage. I am on most of the Debian lists and several others and my mail works fine, but I use MH style mail folders instead of mbox. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
