Package: kmail Version: 4:3.3.2-3 Severity: wishlist I have been a long term Mutt user and have stored my mail in ~/Mail which is apparently special to KMail (unbeknownst to me until today). I opted to use KMail today for a second POP account and noticed it took a long time to open and once it did all of my current Mutt folders were displayed. Worse yet, it created several new directories under ~/Mail and reset all of the access times on the Mutt folders which really messed up Mutt's ability to tell me of new mail for a time. At the very least, KMail should notice when it is run for the first time that ~/Mail already exists (especially if KMail's private directories are not yet created) and prompt the user whether to use ~/Mail or offer to create a new directory and warn the user of the consequences. KMail should not assume that it is the only mailer used. Right now the only way I can use KMail is to rename ~/Mail to something else and reconfigure Procmail and Mutt. - Nate >> -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12-1-k7 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages kmail depends on: ii kdelibs4 4:3.3.2-6.1 KDE core libraries ii libc6 2.3.5-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libgcc1 1:4.0.2-2 GCC support library ii libice6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-7 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libkcal2a 4:3.3.2-3 KDE calendaring library ii libkdenetwork2 4:3.3.2-3 KDE Network library ii libkdepim1 4:3.3.2-3 KDE PIM library ii libkleopatra0a 4:3.3.2-3 KDE GnuPG interface libraries ii libkpimidentities1 4:3.3.2-3 KDE PIM user identity information ii libksieve0 4:3.3.2-3 KDE mail/news message filtering li ii libmimelib1a 4:3.3.2-3 KDE mime library ii libpng12-0 1.2.8rel-1 PNG library - runtime ii libqt3c102-mt 3:3.3.4-3 Qt GUI Library (Threaded runtime v ii libsm6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-7 X Window System Session Management ii libstdc++5 1:3.3.6-7 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-7 X Window System protocol client li ii libxext6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-7 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii perl 5.8.7-6 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii xlibs 6.8.2.dfsg.1-7 X Window System client libraries m ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-4 compression library - runtime Versions of packages kmail recommends: ii kdebase-kio-plugins 4:3.3.2-1 KDE I/O Slaves ii kdepim-kio-plugins 4:3.3.2-3 KDE pim I/O Slaves ii procmail 3.22-11 Versatile e-mail processor -- no debconf information
