If those rm's and mv's from outside of kmails knowledge, were converted to dbus commands to be executed by kmail, then nothing would disturb its database but kmails own actions.
So, where do I find the real docs on how kmail responds to commands sent over dbus? That seems to be a secret, and it sucks dead toads thru soda straws. I just now rechecked the Handbook, and it has zero mention of dbus. So please explain how, and I WILL fix my scripts.
I always did dbus by trial and error. The command line really, really sucks, so try to find a GUI tool to test with and then it’s fairly easy to translate what works to command line for your scripts.
I used qdbusviewer in the past, it worked well but I think it’s dead?
I’ve seen D-Feet [1] referenced, never used it. https://wiki.gnome.org/action/show/Apps/DFeet
