Hi Jeff, Are you saying that kmail has a specific flavor of maildir or some deviation that makes it different than the standard "Maildir/" approach used by everyone else?
Oh wow, I just found it discussed here: http://wiki.mutt.org/?ExtendedMaildirFormat There's the "Extended" format used by everyone else, and there's the way Kmail did it. (I guess I'm really glad I didn't ever use Kmail...) I highly recommend using an IMAP server against your Maildir content, and having all your mail clients interact with your mail spool over IMAP. This would prevent the case of having local clients store things in arbitrarily deviated formats. Does Kmail support IMAP? If so, you could install dovecot, setup a proper Maildir on your server, and just drag/n/drop everything from Kmail's local maildir into the server one?
