  Hi all,
  I did something during the install of 8.2 that left me with a phantom
  account in Kmail.  It has no name, but will not allow me to modify or
  delete it.  Whenever I check mail, it asks for the password for this
  account, but since it doesn't exist, I just click cancel and go on.  Any
  ideas on how to clear out this phantom account?

 had that happen in my 8.2 also with a new account.  i believe it is because
 i skipped the first time wizard so it left a blank account.  look in the
 hidden kde file .kde/share/config/kmailrc  and you will find a plesent text
 file with 2 accounts.  delete both (i think there are two) references that
 have no information in them and start kmail up again and it should be gone.

Try editing ~/.kde/share/config/kmailrc by hand
