           Summary: Using ":" in filenames is incompatible with some NFS

        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kmail@kde.org
        ReportedBy: birger.kollstrand@teleca.no


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.0.5)
Installed from:    RedHat RPMs
OS:          Linux

Hi,

During mail sending Kmail uses some temporary files (i guess) this filename was in \
our case "1046439786.2449.wwDw\:2\,S". 

The result is that kmail is not working properly, we can not send mail and we can not \
delete mail. We can read mail. Our setup is SMTP/IMAP.

Our NFS server is a large Dell NAS 775 with 800gig HD space and it's unfortunately \
Windows Powered. That implies that :\/<>? are illegal characters in file names.

I will try to attach the Ethereal trace of the NFS trafic between the Redhat 8.0 \
machine and the NFS server.

regards birger....
