I'm not sure why you're committed to mbox - especially since you talk about IMAP. It is not safe to have multiple programs processing an mbox file. > > As an alternative solution, would it be safe to symbolic-link folders > shared by kmail and thunderbird (through the imap server) > to .kde/share/apps/knode/folders ?

Will that be possible in a next knode version? >> I really doubt that. Interestingly, yes. I just copied a newsgroup message into my IMAP inbox, and opened it with KMail. No problem. So, you certainly could manually copy messages to a KNode local folder - which is mbox - then either read that file into KMail or move it directly to an IMAP server that handles mbox files (dovecot does, I'm told). > Probably that could be done as part of plan to integrate kmail with knode. > Is knode yet under development, anyway? knode is certainly still being developed, but I don't think anybody is planning to integrate it with kmail. -- derek -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
