i currently have numerous accounts in one instance of kmail but iwant to split them up so i don't mix home/work/mailing lists etc hence asking about activities rather than splitting them via different logins. but thanks for your comment
as far as i know, you can't have "different instances" of kmail, with different configurations. any kmail you open while logged into your user account will have the same configuration, i.e., mail servers, mailing lists, etc., under any activity. what you can do is choose not to update IMAP servers automatically and keep the folders folded up while you don't want to deal with them, and update those folders manually only. to do what you want i'm afraid you'll have to use different applications. i'm using opera mail, per example, for mailing lists and forums (NNTP), and kmail for my personal mail. sometimes i open thunderbird or evolution and connect them to mail servers i manage remotely, but usually i just use alpine via SSH for that. -- phani. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
