I want to transfer my old mail from Kmail on Mandriva 2006 Club edition to Kmail on Suse 10.0. Anybody know what I need to do?
Not sure if the procedure is the same, but I recently moved Kmail from MDK91 to SUSE93 (5 separate upgrades) with the following procedure: 1) Login to a new user on SUSE93 system, but do *NOT* start Kmail. 2) copy ~/.kde/share/config/kmailrc from MDK91 system to SUSE93 system. 3) copy all files/folders from ~/Mail from MDK91 system to SUSE93 system. 4) Start Kmail. Kmail on SUSE93 seems to find the mail in Mail folder when started this way; not sure where the mail is stored otherwise. The file copied in step 2 contains contact list and other preferences. Frank
