For my scenario, that wouldn't happen, since I run KMail on only one machine.
You could end up trying to run it twice if login 2 restores the same session currently running/restored in login 1. The safety check catches this case though.
Also configuration file corruption is one thing, but you would definitely notice that if instance 2 quits after instance 1, any config changes made by instance 1 would be lost.
I guess the answer, if I want to make this a regular thing, is to simply avoid the multiple concurrent KDE logins thing.
'Avoid' is a bit strong here. It's more of a case of gotchas than risks. A tip is to set KDEHOME, KDEVARTMP and KDETMP differently depending on DISPLAY, that way you can access your files, have a separate KDE config for the smaller NX display and avoid all the gotchas. Will -- Will Stephenson
