this could be related to the fact that I have never succeeded in having two accounts with different passwords in any version of kmail. If you save the different password, the password for the other account gets overwritten. I have 'solved' it by having the same password for all my mail accounts - although it is a security hole. -- regards kg http://livejournal.com/lawgon _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
