I'm thinking of changing my pim to kdepim, and I have a few questions.
From what I've seen (having never run it), the mail client keeps its mail in ~/Mail. Where do the contact manager, task manager, and calendar keep their respective data files?
I have to keep a desktop and a laptop synchronized, especially for contacts, tasks and addresses. Does this require a fancy sync program, or can I just use something like unison? I have two desktops. They are different enough that I can't simply link the home directory of one to the other, but several of the directories in my home directory on my secondary desktop are links to my server via nfs, which doubles as my main desktop. Evolution won't let me do this with the ~/.evolution directory without loads of permission errors. Will I have trouble with the kpim applications? TIA.

I don't think it's the applications that's giving you the permissions problems, it's the linux file system. Why not just use the same user IDs on both machines? That way neither evolution nor KDE would complain, I don't think

user IDs are the same on all, which is why I was surprised when evolution squawked. I'll try some test data.
