I think the version I tried was 4.3.1 so it looks like it might be worth=20 giving 4.4 a try on my spare partition. My other problem with upgrading KDE is that I'd like to run both=20 versions for a while until I'm happy, dual booting into one of 2=20 different FreeBSD systems but using the same /home partition. KMail=20 seems to use different directories for storing mail for versions 3 and=20 4 so how do I go about being able to access all my mail from both=20 systems? =2D-=20 Mike Clarke
