[...] Okay, my world has been shaken. (why is it ALWAYS the 'simple shit' that kicks my butt in Linux) :--)
vi .xsession #blackbox kde2 and magic. I can again save/veiw/etc the attachments. Now the question arises, will I EVER be able to use bb again as my perferred desktop and have the ability to save/view/open/etc while using kmail? This program has been a god-send to me in the Linux GUI enviorn! I've brought more users of "The Unnamed One" over to this O/S with the tools, packages, variety, that exist here. And kmail has ALWAYS been "a keeper". But now..... :--) You folks get the idea, I'm sure. Can I/is there a way/would it be too hard to code so that I can have my kmail back? (pretty please!) csj, Thank You for the "heads up" on testing this WITHIN KDE. Never even occured to me to try it.
