Oops: (Was:here's a shot at some extra KDE2 stuff)
Heh. As Marc pointed out, Ithe attachment didn't go through. Originally it
was my fault, not KMails - I simply forgot, however unfortunately, there is a
problem with KMail and attachments, so my foot is squarely in my mouth. It
seems to work beautilfully other than that. The problem iseems to be in
registering the kio_uiserver. It hangs on that waiting for something to
respond. However, when I killed it, idetached from that operation nicely,
and saved this letter into ~/.dead-letter and recovered it upon kmail
startup, so it seems robust in its underlying appcach. I'll send the
attachment from another mailer (sniff)
<everyone can now have a good laugh at my expense - but hey, I contributed.

Christian.
