And why such a nonsensical modification?! If ~/Mail is where kmail is set up to store your mails, what do you expect? ~/Mail has not been default since some 3.x version ( ~/.kde/share/apps/kmail is now default). I see that you could not have known kmail defaults but I don't think this is only kmail fault, it is also a user error as both applications are set up to use the same folder for mail storage. Hence I believe the severity should be lowered but I'm not doing it just now. -- Modestas Vainius <modes...@vainius.eu>
