Dear John,

I am apprehensive to mention this, because everyone seems adamant about me not 
using Karmic, but I am writing and answering emails using my old computer and 
have Karmic installed on it.

What is so unusual to me about this problem is that the browser works fine 
while I receive the error message from Kmail.  I have even sent responses to 
certain companies from websites that provide their email service.  I am able 
to update and upgrade too, so my connection to the ISP is working fine.  My 
problem is exclusively with kmail, and it happened the day that I made the 8 
item update that comes via kpackagekit.

Additionally, I have item by item checked kmail configuration, so I am quite 
sure it is not a configuration problem.  I have been avoiding setting up a 
network, because I am so dense in that area, but I think I will have to do 
that to make things more workable.  Every time I want to send and receive 
emails, I have to disconnect and reconnect cables, and getting up and down is 
not so easy anymore.  Thanks for the continued help.

Steven
