I never open Kmail, unless I want it. I looked to see if it showed on
the taskbar. It was not. Are you saying it is running and not on
screen or the taskbar? When I boot up, it opens. I close it at that
time. I do that because I can't send, so it is meaningless to have it
open. Maybe this is more of the Newbie experience.
