I am still trying to come to terms with the new KMail/Kontact.

First of all: basics work, that is sending and receiving mail. My 
accounts (all of them pop3 accounts) were migrated.

However, looking at the log from migration it states:
[Wed Jun 22 08:49:37 2011] Info   : Migrating local folders in 
'/home/sinclair/.kde/share/apps/kmail/mail'...
[Wed Jun 22 08:49:37 2011] Info   : Creating instance of type 
akonadi_mixedmaildir_resource
[Wed Jun 22 08:49:37 2011] Info   : Created local maildir resource.
[Wed Jun 22 08:49:37 2011] Info   : Keeping 'Local Folders' for default 
outbox, sent mail, trash, etc.
[Wed Jun 22 08:49:40 2011] Success: Local folders migrated successfully.

But they have stayed in '/home/sinclair/.kde/share/apps/kmail/mail' and 
not been moved to /home/sinclair/.local/share/local-mail' that I though 
was to be the new "standard" for maildir?

browsing around rc-files I seem to have 3 maildir resources, one mixed 
maildir and two maildir? 2 of them pointing to .../kmail/mail and one to 
.../local-mail

And Local Mail (in GUI) had only Outbox, no trash/sent mail etc. All 
those are now in "KMail Folders".

I am not sure what to do:
1. weed out those not pointing to .../kmail/mail or
2. move mailfolders to /local-mail and weed out resources not pointing 
there?
3. delete various folders/files and try a new migration?

and can not figure out why the Search function is dead. Thought w 
Nepomuk et al it would be fantastic instead...
