The attitude of Kmail development/developers is to blame. Since they started KDE4 it became unstable and unusable, pretty fragile. Each attempt to move them to commit to stability first was rejected, because it was seen as a slow down on the road map. The question what is it useful for if not reliable was also ignored. I am suspecting conspiracy behind it - there is no logical explanation - who is paying the work and why are they doing it - it is a mystery to me. The obvious fact is that >KDE4 users are guinea pig. Looking for alternative I came across a community that kept KDE3 alive under the name of Trinity Desktop and I've been using it happily in the past 10y. 10y since KDE team promissed that KDE will become stable and usable soon. Those guys are a joke. They might be good developers, but obviously the user satisfaction are not on their priority list. regards
