identity dependent sent-mail folder?  I have one 'sent-mail' folder, and so 
far nearly everything I've sent, including the third such one that 
disappeared and started this thread, but did show up in this sent-mail folder 
several hours later (like about 8), so that msg has now been resent through 
the correct mail server, in this case gmail.

Please explain this "identity dependent sent-mail folder", how to create and 
link it correctly.  Or is it now documented in the help and I haven't read it 
recently enough?  Remember, this whole corpus of email dates back to about 
RH6.2 by a direct copy from the old maildir to the new one each time I've 
updated.

Also, if I right click on a folder and then properties, it seems to me that 
the second line should show the server it will use, but if it is the default, 
it shows nothing, only if I have selected the "Gmail send" profile, or 
another spam bypassing vz account alias, (which I should delete from the 
sending portion as it is a invalid user to the vz server for sending) does it 
show the sending servers profile name.  IMO it should at least show "default" 
when queried in that manner.  And now, when I go back to verify that 
statement, I find that if I select default, it now accepts it (it did not 
yesterday and I tried it several times), and can now recall it.  I'm losing 
it, this thing is making a liar out of me when the frogs are watching, but 
that's fine if it will now show default for every mailing list related folder 
where I'd subscribed via that particular server until _I_ change it.  All I 
have to is go change them all (50 some folders) accordingly.

But what about this identity dependent sent-mail folder?  Should I create 
another 'sent-mail' folder and set it to 'Gmail send' in the properties?  It 
seems odd that kmail would even allow that since I already have a 'sent-mail' 
folder.

Thanks Ingo.
