            Bug ID: 342834
           Summary: ImportWizard fails to detect Icedove email client even
                    while it is running
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.13.3
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: amenex at amenex.com

When I first installed KMail, I started by importing the contents of a
Thunderbird profile saved from a WindowsXP SP3 instalation on another computer.
This went fine.

However, that took quite a while ... so I shut down this Trisquel flavor of
debian/ubuntu and went to bed. Upon the next startup, I tried to import mail
from the local installation of Icedove and was met with a brick wall. Import
Wizard says it's detecting installed email clients, but appears to be preset to
evolution, which I do not have. The import wizard fails to detect Icedove, and
there is no mechanism for searching the local file system for other email
clients.

Please tell users where the desired profiles should be placed so that the
import wizard can find them.
