That's interesting. Here it's the other way round: on first logging-in to the desktop, with kmail saved as an application from the previous session, kmail takes for ever to get through its startup sequence, which includes fetching new e-mails via POP3. It's usually a few minutes before I can do anything with it. After that it's as responsive as any other program, and the composer is too. I've had the same problem with all recent versions as far as I remember; the current version here is kmail 1.13.5 in KDE 4.5.2. (Not wishing to hijack your thread...) I doubt it's your problem, but I wonder if mine is the dreaded IPv6 lookup problem raising its ugly head again. -- Rgds Peter. Linux Counter 5290, 1994-04-23.
