A couple of days of playing with Kmail and I decided that OK it works, it's useable, it's stable. But it's not very pleasant to work with. It doesn't do a good job of threading messages is my main argument, but actually it's just lots of small niggles that made me feel uncomfortable with it. A quick word on why it doesn't handle threading of messages too hot, in your environment. I'm not an expert on this, but I think this is how its done. Each email has a number or something like that in the header which allows the client to thread the email properly. However, Microsoft in Outlook just entirely omits this little piece of knowledge. Outlook drops the ID and sorts based on the subject line, which IMHO is stupid. So when someone replies, it leaves out the ID which is needed for threading. Now whether you blame MS or the KMail developers for this error...another story :) Best of luck Kevin Breit
