Hi

 

I followed UPDATING instructions and deleted -r /akonadi immediately before
running portupgrade -a which resulted in an upgrade to kde4 8.4.

 

Now I seem to have a problem with kmail which when launched gives:

 

Error kmail

kmail encountered a fatal error and will terminate now. The error was:

Failed to fetch resource collection.

 

There seems to be no way to ignore the termination and set up kmail to read
and access existing configuration data.

 

This is for me a serious issue having many thousands of carefully catalogued
emails.

 

How do I set about recovery?

 

The mails seem to be there - a I can access them via pop server onto another
machine. But the indexing and cataloguing data does not move across.

 

In the meantime I am using mail via the pop server &   MS$ outlook - yuck

 

Thanks in advance

 

David
