Dear Kent:
A good suggestion, a good guess but not quite right in my case. I checked and
here is what it shows:
djview.desktop mahjongg.desktop
eog.desktop mimeinfo.cache
epiphany.desktop Mozilla.desktop
evolution-2.0.desktop Mozilla-editor.desktop
file-roller.desktop mozilla-firefox.desktop
freecell.desktop mozilla-thunderbird.desktop
galeon.desktop mozilla-thunderbird-pm.desktop
gataxx.desktop mplayer.desktop
gcalctool.desktop nautilus-computer.desktop
gconf-editor.desktop nautilus.desktop
So that's not the issue.
Thank you. Will let the list know when I find the solution. Have been in touch
with kmail-devel and I think they'll resolve it.
Benjamin
