surely ... .kde/share/config/kmailrc - but it's sort of encrypted.
the encryption looks like unciphered_char = 287 - ciphered_char.
you have the latin1 ascii encoding table at hand? *g*
no, seriously. compile this tiny program:
-------- snip --------
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
char buf[100];
int len, i;
while (fgets (buf, sizeof(buf), stdin))
{
len = strlen (buf) - 1;
for (i = 0; i < len; i++)
putchar (287 - buf[i]);
puts("");
}
}
------- snap --------
run it, paste the encrypted password from kmail into it and have
fun with the password.
