I have used a ~/Mail directory since I started with 8.2. In every upgrade Kmail always recognizes the presence of that directory and uses it instead of ~/.kde/share/apps/kmail/mail without any need for change in settings. It may adapt the *.index files at the upgrade, but it is completely transparent and all messages are there with proper status (read/unread, etc).
Wow, that's handy, because every time I upgrade, recovering my mail from Evolution to Evolution is a right pain in the neck. It does not support import of all data and settings from itself (seriously, that's a pretty silly misfeature), so you have to import mbox by mbox, and when you have a complex folder structure like I do... Or maybe I'm just doing it wrong, I wouldn't be surprised. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
