I am thinki= ng of switching to pgsql but am very nervous. I live in kmail. Over the y= ears I have tried several email clients and kmail, with all its faults, is = still the best. At least for pop3.

&nb= sp;

If pgsql wi= ll solve some of the existing problems, and I know exactly what to do in or= der to make the switch, and if I won't lose ability to search my old kmail = files, I want to try it. But I don't understand why, if pgsql is better, t= he developers don't use it. I don't understand why, if akonadi is "ju= nk", why the kmail developers still use it. It there anyway to get so= me kind of consensus as to which is better and whether switching causes oth= er problems? Is there some way to get some input from the developers conce= rning this matter?
