when i was last able to use kmail as my every day mailer, i learned all 
the keyboard chords, and worked across multiple accounts with thousands 
of folders with millions of messages, plus calendaring, plus pgp, all 
without taking my hands off the home row of my QWERTY. it was the most 
efficient, most intelligently designed, the most visually pleasing, 
messaging work flow i've ever seen or used.

it was better than mh and mh-e, which i would have said wasn't possible.

i have been a wandering refugee ever since akonadi came. my current 
daily e-mail tool is "postbox" which is a later invention by the 
original "thunderbird" team. i now launch kontact only for pgp.
