You're welcome.
You could look into ~/Mail/ or wherever you keep your mails and find the In=
box=20
directory. Then copy any messages you want shown there manually. The inde=
x=20
will be recreated when you restart Kmail, or if you click on 'Recreate Inde=
x'=20
under the Properties/Maintenance of the folder.
Also, under Settings/Configure Kmail/Misc there is a field to specify which=
=20
folder to open on start up.
Some combination of the above should work.
Please note there is a known bug which has come about due to bitrot: All s=
ent=20
messages are placed in the local Sent-Mail folder. I have to manually drag=
=20
and drop them in the respective email account sent folders from which they=
=20
were sent.
=2D-=20

Mick
