On the machine (GO704.coyote.den) I am currently trying to work with,
yes. And likely on all 3, which would include lathe.coyote.den and
shop.coyote.den. If not, its certainly fixable.
And the keys have been imported, apparently w/o error on that machine,
but that was not done from its own console, it was done via an
"ssh -Y GO704" login from here on coyote. I think that makes a
difference.

That would imply, I believe, that I have the /sshnet/machine network
using sshfs set up to function both ways. Presently I do not but
have been trying to figure out a way to do that.
Refresh me on how I can make that work from the individual machines.
Currently its only from this machine /to/ the other 3. EG, I have a
dir called /sshnet here, that when the whole net is up and
connected, looks like this:
gene@coyote:/etc/dovecot/conf.d$ ls -l /sshnet
total 12
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4096 Nov 10 13:37 GO704
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4096 Sep 24 11:30 lathe
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4096 Sep 24 11:44 shop
gene@coyote:/etc/dovecot/conf.d$
And as me, gene, I can do anything to those machines that gene has
perms to do. But its not mirrored at those machines, something I
would like to do.
Thanks Nic.

Knowing where it keeps its log would help. Its running, hasn't
reported any errordbut no logfile can be found. I also asked
kmail on one of the machines to access kit, and then had to
leave for about 5 hours. at the end of which that " client"
kmail was still trying to read the server.
dovecot -n reports:
# 2.1.7: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
# OS: Linux 3.4-9-amd64 x86_64 Debian 7.9
mail_location = maildir:~/Mail/*/cur
mail_plugins = IMAP
namespace inbox {
inbox = yes

special_use = \Drafts
}
mailbox Junk {

Hints?
Thank you.

Hi Gene!
I might miss the point, but what would happen if you just run
kmail on the remote comuter - that where your mails are and where
you have kmail working - like this:
$ ssh -X gene@remote /opt/trinity/bin/kmail
