Or you could create new "mbox" mail folders in Kmail and move your
mail from the "maildir" folders over. Then you can open them from
Evolution og Thunderbird.
If you would like to use another and lighter WM like fx. Openbox,
which I prefer, you could start a panel with batterystatus and so on
from that one too. Fx. "gnome-panel" or another faster one. But I'm
not sure which is faster of that and XFCE.
