I was wondering if anyone has, or would it be possible, to make a version of Kmail that is portable. By that I mean made so that you could have it on a CD, or usb drive that you could take with you. Mail and settings could be stored and saved there, and would not be kept on the workstation. Like thunderbird I guess. I have tried thunderbird, esp using win machines, but unless I am missing a setup option, it does not seem to thread messages properly. But, the older versions would just run from a directory, on your desktop or whereever. All you email was stored there too. You could take it all with you. Unfotunately the newer versions have an install routin that installs the app in the normal places. I really like kmail, and was wondering if/how to make it "portable". Pardon the meandering. -- Jim Flanagan linuxjim@jjfiii.com
