[opensuse] second client alongside kmail, all using same mail folders
Hi all, this is probably too simple or too complicated. Either way, I'd like to have your feedback: Due to problems with inline forwarding multithreaded mails in kmail 1.9.6 (see http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=141301) I am not longer able to maintain a majordomo mailing list the way I had been doing this the last few years. Downgrading is no option since there seem to be a few missing but necessary dependencies between the suse rpm packages of the different kde versions, with the effect that after a downgrade of kdepim alone I am no longer able to use konqueror. So what I am thinking about is to use an email cient alongside kmail (which I'd like to keep), which has access only to the majordomo messages stored in a specific folder, and which is simple enough for forwarding the textbased majordomo messages. It wouldn't be used for anything else. Ah, not to forget: kmail stores its mails in maildir format. Thanks for your response.

Thanks, I will give it a try. Though muttrc needs a few specifications to be able to read the mailfolders created by kmail. My first try wasn't successful (Mutt: "[path] isn't a mailbox."). Doesn't matter much, help is at hand: http://wiki.mutt.org/?MuttFaq/Maildir
but it is not guiey and doesn't use the mouse :^)
Ah well, sometimes the mouse is allowed to have some rest. I love animals. Thanks again, Patrick Guido
