I actually threw it all away once to see if it would make a difference,
since I'm using IMAP and don't care about the cached mail at all. It did
not appear to. Last night, also, I ended up with about 10 duplicate
e-mails also which I've never seen before (they appear to be duplicated
on the server, but I haven't seen that happen when I wasn't using KMail
- -- could be totally unrelated though).
