Sadly, I had already done something different by the time I read this. But if
I could grab you and kiss you down the internet I would! I have nearly
everything intact. I am having to do a bit of moving around and the settings
need redoing, but I have my folders, my filters, so far as I can see all my
emails - in other words, maybe not as good as it could have been but entirely
acceptable and _far_ better than I was trying to get resigned to!
Many, many thanks,
and of course repeated heartfelt thanks to the rest of you who gave me so much
help,

Stupid people
need stupid questions... I hang my head. Unfortunately, I
can't now try it because KMail-trinity now crashes as soon as I try to
open it. I need to get back somehow to square one with it. But when I
do, I shall immediately try your suggestion - and kick myself hard again.
(The obvious thing to try first is reinstate the default in kmailrc.)
If I were in your situation I would try to remove all KMail's config files:
~/.trinity/share/apps/kmail/*
~/itrinity/share/config/emaildefaults
~/itrinity/share/config/emailidentities
~/itrinity/share/config/kmailrc*
~/Mail (or any other directory that contains your emails).
By removing I mean of course moving them to different location, so they can
be restored. I would hope that KMail will simple recreate those files and
then you could try to import emails from old KDE3 directory.
I don't claim that this will work, but that's what I would try.
