I actually have my name in the Name: box. I was trying to be "generic", maybe took it too far.:)

You mean in the Network setup? OK,

The name box is the one you get to by: Kmail / settings / configure / network / sending / modify / general. that's not supposed to be your name, that's

the name of your outgoing connection. If you have multiple mail servers you want to use, give each a descriptive name, and then you can select them from a dropdown in the mail editor. If you only have one, you don't have to give it a name, it'll just be set to 'Unnamed'

Boy, this network stuff is frustrating. I have only one ISP and email that I am trying to set up.

Strange. Do you perhaps have multiple identities configured, and the mail editor is using the wrong one, one where you don't have an email address setup?!

All of the windows that show lists have only one entry.

Or when you say you have your email address, do you perhaps only have the first part of it, the part before the @? (like only 'davidtief', and not 'davidtief@abac.com'). You need to put the whole thing in there

I do have the whole thing. I found some stuff in Yast, but it looks like it is ok - but I don't know what I 'm doing, apparently. I didn't mess with any of those settings. I attempted to sign up for the Suse online support, but that doesn't want to work either. I filled out the form, but didn't get an email with a password. Used a link on the web page to contact them. A few days later I get a reply, saying go try again. I get the same error that my user name is still in use. Send a reply to let them know, and still no reply. I paid real money to get support, and this is not what I call support. I'll try another user name and see what happens. Thank you, Dave Dave Tief. N1WWY, Addie Tief.
