Hi! Thanks for the help with my KMail problems! It now works perfectly! However, I have a new problem... It seems that only the superuser can mount my cdrom.

In /etc/fstab you should have a line like: /dev/hdc /cdrom iso9660 ro,noauto,user 0 0 that will allow a user to mount the cdrom with the command mount /cdrom But if you need to do something as root, like install from a cdrom, that is run an executable which is on the cdrom, then you must use the conventional mount command: mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc /cdrom
really annoying since I refuse to give away my root-password. (god knows what he would do to my linuxinstallation... ;) Any suggestions?
