Hi all,
I decided to play around with KDE2 this morning so I installed it from the SuSE 7.0 DVD disk. After starting it and opening Kmail that comes with it my mail messages were no longer filtered properly. The messages I had sorted in different folders were no longer sorted properly and had dates of 1969 or 1973. Does anyone have an idea of what might have happened?
Thanks, Mike
<p> Yes it appears that KDE2 conflicts with programs for KDE 1.1.2. One of these is Kmail. I have a smilar problem. If you look in your sent mail in KDE 1.1.2 all the recievers will now be Michael Long. My advice is to use only one of the two Kmails until KDE2.0 is fixed in the next release. Also I have read that starting KAB (the K address book), in KDE2, will corrupt it's contents too.

Kmail2 uses a different kmailrc located in the .kde2/share/config. You will have to re-create all the filters again. I'm not sure if you can cut and paste to the new one. You will also probably have to re-enter your logins and passwords. Once I did this, and got the mailer working, the date thing seemed to clear itself up. I didn't have that many messages and after going through them with the left arrow key, they seem to be in order now. Hope this helps..

I liked KDE2 so much that I removed KDE1 from my system. I'm giving up some programs for a while but I don't think the wait will be long. KMail and KNode (KDE2 apps) are rock solid for me. Konqueror as an fm is rock solid. As a browser it is solid, but there are some sites that it won't parse properly. I can't log into SourceForge.net, for example. KDE2 is just awesome! Nice job team!

Unscientific theories -Marxist dialectical history and Freudian psychology were Popper's favorites -are formed in such a way that they cannot be falsified by data.

Had the same problem with kmail. If you want to correct the dates just go into each folder and mark all the messages, then set the status of all the messages to read and it will correct all the dates for you. You may have to correct the filters also as they get messed up when you crossover also. For now it looks like you have to stick to one version of KDE to read the mail all everything get messed up again. John...........
