I copied selected files like emailidentities, parts of kmailrc, etc. and they seem to work fine. Only two rather annoying problems: I can't find the POP Filters to copy them over and so far all my messages arrive in the main inbox. I can't find the config file which contains the Outgoing mail account settings (I have a number of outgoing accounts and would rather not have to set them up manually again). Any ideas where these are hiding? -- Regards, Mick
