Hi Nils When I try this (root) , I get, cannot remove ~/Mail. Is a directory. rm: cannot remove `.*.index*': No such file or directory
Hmm, looks like you mistyped the rm command? It should be rm ~/Mail/.*.index* ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ no blank character here! Furthermore, the command should be run as the user operating Kmail, not as root. Otherwise you will remove the index files in the mail directory of root, not the files in the user's mail directory.
