[kde-freebsd] Re: Call for test: KDE PIM 4.6.0

[Hannes]

Hi everyone,

another update on my experience:
1) Since the conversion of my local mail folder didn't work, I set it up 
manually with akonadi-control-interface (just add KMAIl-maildir-
ressource and give ~/.kde4/share/apps/kmail/mail as path). That worked.
2) I removed the old IMAP, for which I added a new one. However the 
duplicate (non-working) IMAP entry remains. There is no akonadi-setup 
for this (i.e. I don't see it in the settings), its just there in the 
list.
3) Opening settings still takes long.

Other than that experience is ok. Thank god, the interface is not 
blocking anymore now. However it still could be faster on laoding Mail, 
I think.

Regards,
Hannes
