Thanks Gene, for the quick reply, thought there might be a switch or two to 
shut off or turn on... or maybe a tweak in a config file, but did not expect 
to be running fetch and procmail servers... (laptop) to read mail.,
also, I notice kmail and konversation are not as stable compare to dapper.
had a major crash, when trying to filter 5000 emails with 23 filters... crash 
n burn .

doesn't kmail use a sql database backend ?

Thanks  -
