I have no idea what went wrong or why it happened, but I was reading through my emails and on some when read the header disappeared and the message appeared blank. Strange but didn't give it much thought at the time so I closed kmail down. When I tried to restart it a little later it just wouldn't from either the toolbar icon, the Kmenu or from a console. I went into my /home/ directory and renamed the directory to "saved-Mail" and powered down the computer completely. Rebooted and started up kmail ok, it detected the missing Mail directory and created a new one. I copied the contents across from my saved copy but then it stopped working again. I can't seem to find a solution to reinstate my old emails into kmail again. Anyone got any suggestions please? -- magnet
