Thanks. No haven't moved it to a different drive. Did rename it back,
though, and in the process some of the writes to local disk got better, as
in my having moved 2500 messages to their appropriate subdirectories
without event.
(One probably unrelated issue that probably *is* due to KMail is that if I
click on a link in KMail it does not go to that link, it goes to
some /tmp/ file and never carries me to the linked site. I can, though,
copy the link and open it in the browser no problem.)
Am poking my way through this as methodically as I can. We'll see where it
leads.
Is there a way to force reindexing of all the messages in all the
subdirectories under ~/Mail?
