May be a problem in the kmail settings between different versions (esp. when going back to an older version). Try the following from your home directory: cd .kde/share mv apps/kmail apps/kmail.old mv config/kmailrc config/kmailrc.old Then try again. Of course, your previous email settings (identities and such) will be gone, and will have to be recreated. But the info is still there in the *.old file/directory if you need to retrieve something. -- Ron ronhd at users dot sourceforge dot net Opinions expressed here are all mine. ____________________________________________________ Want to buy your Pack or Services from Mandriva?
