While we're on the subject of mail...
kmail doesn't seem to want to expire old messages after the length of time I 
specify in the "properties of folder" dialogue (folder holds mailing list). 
Is this because my folder for the list belongs to the "Top Level"? Or should 
I change some setting in control centre? Neither looks like a good answer...

More likely I should go to Settings / Configure KMail / Folders  .. and check 
"Expire old messages"... but .. I don't want to lose recent mail that I've 
read and not finished with yet. If I check that box and exit kmail I get the 
message "are you sure you want to delete old messages, they will be deleted 
permanently" or some such. I am happy as long as kmail will look at the rules 
for each folder before deciding what is "old mail".

Any more experienced kmail users who could put my mind (such as it is) to 
rest?
