Yes, Shame on you, Kubuntu.  I have used Kubuntu for six or more years 
and kmail for probably 10years.  But when I upgraded from Kubuntu 8-04 
to 10-04 because I was running out of support time, suddenly everything 
was foreign.  Kmail became completely useless and I tried to configure 
it for several weeks.  No good, so I tried Thunderbird and it lacks so 
much that the old kmail had that I hate to use it.

When you download an iso and install you shouldn't have to spend months 
making it into a usable system.  I don't think I will ever be able to 
make this 10-04 into something as easy to use and as feature-rich as my 
8-04 was.

It almost seems like the designers working on each new version have 
said, "How can we make this more complicated?" And they found a way.
