you didn't 'offend' me. It is a simple fact that you can save yourself a lot of time and keep frustration away searching the archives. I just let kmail search for 'phonon' which gave me as a result the 'strange world' thread where someone had the same problem: phonon blocks. It really had advantages to keep all the mails local ;) But even then - your google-fu seems lacking ;)
