Okay, my world has been shaken. (why is it ALWAYS the 'simple shit' that
kicks my butt in Linux) :--)
vi .xsession
#blackbox
kde2
and magic. I can again save/veiw/etc the attachments. Now the question
arises, will I EVER be able to use bb again as my perferred desktop and have
the ability to save/view/open/etc while using kmail?
This program has been a god-send to me in the Linux GUI enviorn! I've
brought more users of "The Unnamed One" over to this O/S with the tools,
packages, variety, that exist here. And kmail has ALWAYS been "a keeper". But
now..... :--)
You folks get the idea, I'm sure. Can I/is there a way/would it be too hard
to code so that I can have my kmail back? (pretty please!)
csj, Thank You for the "heads up" on testing this WITHIN KDE. Never even
occured to me to try it.
Have a great weekend!!
