just for the hell of it, I synced and ran emerge -uD world. This brought in xemacs-base, festival (which failed until I remerged speech-tools and it ran) poppler-bindings and transcode. Kmail still failed. I logged into konsole as root and set up a brand new kmail profile using only one of my 2 email accounts. Kmail actually sent and email!!!!. I then closed root's kmail and opened as user. I deleted all profiles and account information and started fresh using the same address as I used for root. IT WORKED!! I then recreated my ntplx account. ALL IS WELL. I'll be damned If I know why but kmail seems (at least so far) to be fixed. Thanks to all for their patience and suggestions, even the people who told me (in a nice way) I didn't know what I was doing. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
