I think youre rt about t'bird. I tried to install it and got waaaay lost. ince kde is the same <<wherever>>, I'm including the ancillary file that is giving kmail fits. maybe someone omlist will spot the trouble straight away---considering that this is the sharpest list anywhere. in the meantime, im using the rightmost button with mutt and getting some of the http urls. thank, everybody, # trouble report:: Akonadi Server Self-Test Report =============================== Test 1: SUCCESS -------- Database driver found. Details: The QtSQL driver 'QMYSQL' is required by your current Akonadi server configuration and was found on your system. File content of '/home/kline/.config/akonadi/akonadiserverrc': [%General] Driver=QMYSQL [QMYSQL] Name=akonadi Host= Options="UNIX_SOCKET=/home/kline/.local/share/akonadi/socket-tao/mysql.socket" ServerPath=/usr/sbin/mysqld-akonadi StartServer=true [Debug] Tracer=null Test 2: SUCCESS -------- Akonadi is not running as root Details: Akonadi is not running as a root/administrator user, which is the recommended setup for a secure system.
