kmail losing emails... help pls!

[Rick]

Thanks Derek...

its odd thou, I did a test with a large folder,
containing 1000 .mp3 files, and copied it over to another 
usb drive, sure enough, did not get 1000, got 918 of them.
---
would be nice to see if someone else can create this bug,
besides me.

Got a message, in the transfer window "Stalled", when I was coping
the files over.

Regards-
Richard
