Chris: no hammer needed. Suggestions from Robert and others just worked for me. His suggestion re volume of mail here is right on. I added a separate folder to my kmail that I named "Linuxinfo" and I try to move any emails that look either interesting or like they might be useful in the future there. I think many others do something similar. I will move Robert's email there as I can bet this will come up again in the future and it will then be at hand for me.
