I've been trying to get rid of unwanted messages from this list in Kmail -- and at a certain point, it simply bombs out. When I try to delete these messages, Kmail simply terminates with no error messages or anything else that would indicate the nature of the difficulty. The messages I'm trying to delete are from Sid Boyce at 4:37 and 5:23 today and from Sean Rima at 4:49 today (Jan. 27). I've tried compacting the newsgroup file, but that doesn't help.
About 18 months ago there was something similar, and it turned out that a couple of messages had incorrect headers - somehow they were using headers belonging to another email. I'm sorry I can't be more specific - I don't seem to have kept copies of the emails. Perhaps you could do a search on the list. -- Pob hwyl / Best wishes Kevin Donnelly www.kyfieithu.co.uk - Meddalwedd Rhydd yn Gymraeg www.cymrux.org.uk - Linux Cymraeg ar un CD!
