I am just trying to understand why KDE feels they need to look and feel like windows and have the system do everything for you.

Thank you very much.  I found here the account setting for all my mail accounts and removed them.

I see only the following in my setup;

	akonadi_akonotes_resource_0
	Notes
	Local Folders

I am not sure what they do or if I really need them.
How does one go about stopping akonadi?
