Subject:    Bug#19506: kmail as other user does not work

Package: kmail
Version: 2.1 Beta 2
Severity: normal
Installed from: Debian package from kde2.tdyc.com

When I try to run kmail as another user, kmail does not come up. While this does work \
for other applications (konqueror, netscape, konsole)

When I am in a konsole and I do a 'su' to the user I want to run kmail as, and then I \
do a 'kmail -display gdevree:0' it works.  (well, I did a 'xhost +gdevree' before and \
my hostname is gdevree, I think the xhost-command is needed, but I did not try \
without.)

Maybe this is not really a kmail related problem, but more a kdesu related problem. \
In that case, please tell me how to correct the mistake...
