<pre style="direction: ltr;" wrap="">Hi All
so, again, the old, (in)famous issue.
System:
- Kubuntu 64bit 12.10 updated
- KDE 4.9.2
I made a *fresh* installation of Kubuntu in a "virgin" hard disk, setup the
entire Kmail with all my accounts (everything is kept to server, so I don't
have problems to lose something).
Nepomuk has made its work, indexing my folders and now is quiet.
The accounts are syncronized, Kmail is quiet. the "google-akonadi-contacs"
plugin is working, so I can see my contacts in the addressbook. But.
But, I cannot get working the address autocompletion when composing a message!
So, even if now my system is quite new and works well (as fast as I expected),
I'm seriously thinking of migrating to TB and have full-working system...
Please, give me suggestions for not take this irreversible decision.
TIA
Ciao

<pre style="direction: ltr;" wrap="">Nepomuk must be enabled for address autocompletion to work. However if it isn't you do get a warning message when you compose mail in KMail.
Try opening KAddressbook and ensure there is a tick in the box next to your google contacts list. It works for me but I'm on 4.9.3.
Like you, I considered moving to Thunderbird as I have plenty of other issues with KMail but I tried it and it just didn't feel right :)

Hi Mark & Valter<br>
I'd like to jump in this discussion at the other end of the
problem. I have been using TB for years and am happy with it.
Lately I have looked into KMail and am thinking of moving over.
One thing preventing me doing it is the fact that for work
purposes I have Windows as a dual boot on my computer. I use
Thunderbird in both and have the mail on a common partition so I
can use my TB in whatever I am logged into. <br>
Persuade me please<span class="moz-smiley-s7"><span> :-\ </span></span><br>

Perhaps they have fixed KMail, *but*:<br>
In SuSE 10.1 I had KMail, and about 1 time in 15 or so, the text
would appear in some kind Asian characters instead of the usual
Latin alphabet,<br>
and there was no way to turn it back into something readable. I
would never use it again. If I could not get Thunderbird, I would
not use that distro.<br>
