Just postulating because no one else has responded -- maybe kmail5 can't read 
maildirs directly but somehow have to be input to or recognized by Akonadi?
.
How does Akonadi get into this? Shouldn't it be as easy as putting the older kmailrc, \
someplace where the new kmail can find it?


IOW, what is the path now where kmailrc is stored?


Thanks, rhkramer
