yes, I think that is what I have ended up with!
I removed all of my IMAP/POP3 accounts, used fetchmail, setup each account as
IMAP, restarted fetchmail, and things seem to be coming in to /var/mail/user
and each user has a local account setup in kmail..
I have fetchmail set to fetchall. If I set it to keep, can I use a laptop,
setup that account as IMAP on the laptop and also retrieve that same email? I
mean setup a kmail account as IMAP.. on the laptop.
