quite a surprise, since

wifi works but I couldn't force nm-applet to work properly, so I installed
kdenetworkmanager-trinity instead. Works prefectly, at least so far.
This is a "feature" of new installations of Debian from Squeeze onwards.
Is this perhaps where this problem arose?
I realise that you know much more than I do in general, so I am only
offering this tentatively.

3. In relation to discussion in another thread - I was
able to import my
emails without problems.
I think that I am the only person ever to have any problems, let alone an
intractable one. I had the same problem when I tired to switch to Squeeze
and Trinity last year, so went back to Lenny. I can only assume that there
is something in my data that is causing this problem.
