Sorry, I do not know why that happened.

Debian I use as a server nothing else, data only.

I run 64 bit PCLinuxOS 2012.06 Test 5, but since that has now switched to 
kmail2 I am using the 32 bit 2012.02 version of PCLinuxOS to pick up mail.

I have now tried Fedora 17 and that has the same problem. Although I think I 
have set up kmail2 correctly as I would in kmail1. It cannot send or receive 
emails.

In Fedora 17 it gave me an option to use sendmail as the transport, but that 
did not do anything either.
