Hi,
Merry Christmas or happy holidays to all on the list.
A quick question that arose from my last installation. I would like to know 
the best way to save emails, desktop settings etc. when installing new 
versions.
When I installed 10.1 Official I tried to copy my Mail directory and 
my .kde>share>apps>kmail directories thinking that they would restore all my 
emails. 
When I copied them over to /mnt/win_d (fat32 partition) there were some errors 
about some files not copied. 
There were no essential emails so I proceeded with the installation. 
My kmail directory structure was saved but the actual emails were not.

What is the the recommended method of retaining emails? Also, is it advisable 
to retain desktop settings considering that KDE (my choice) is constantly 
being upgraded to new versioins?

Thanks,
Bill W.
