I'm so happy, I thought I lost all my groupware data, but thanks to kmail's dimap, I \
did not.<br> <br>
thanks for specifying about imap and dimap, I know starting from 3.4 we
had to use dIMAP. Computer A is broken, I was not using be B
much, so kmail config stayed on IMAP and now that A is broken, I need
to use B but I can't switch accounts to dIMAP because of bug #112256. I
probably lost the groupware data for that reason ? already had the
groupware setting on since 3.3 and kmail did not like it, so I lost my
folders ? anyway... I have a backup of broken computer A, so I can
remove everything.<br>
<br>
anyway, thanks a bunch<br><br><div><div><span class="e" \
