problems migrating to kmail 4.11

[msh at farsight-data.com]

thanks for the response, but, while sending is an isssue, my first priority is
 RECEIVING mail, and the accounts system doesn't show me a place to do anything
other that select the folder the mail will go into.

So, where do I set up pop3 receiving?

Thanks,

Mark
