Hi,
For those of you who are using Gmail with POP and Kmail and are unable to see their own replies, upgrade to KDE 3.4 or later. They seem to have fixed this issue. When I first started using Kmail with Gmail's POP servers, Kmail wouldn't fetch my own replies from Gmail's inbox. I could see my replies in the web interface but Kmail decided to ignore them. Recently I switched over to FC4 and the default Kmail client fetches my replies.
Alas, this machine is still on FC2 and KDE 3.2 :(
Just thought the list would like to know.
ciao!

Yeah! I'm on KDE 3.5.1 and Kmail has been great with Gmail. Unlike Thunderbird which managed to delete ALL my emails from the Gmail server (Yes I configured it properly), Kmail actually keeps the messages that I have not deleted from my local mailbox.

A word of caution for gmail users. Some experts believe that gmail scans and archives messages permanently as part of some human research and thats why its free. It creates profiles of all users and builds a relationship table which is why its available only through invitations. It is also said that messages deleted from the mail box are still archived permanently by google. So please use gmail after understanding everything.

Rony.

M$ fud?. That is what any mail service provider does any way. If he is based in the USA the land of the new unfree, they are required by law to archive mail to be provided on demand by the govt. There is a case in some court bing fought by the feds and google afair. So if u send something on the net unencrypted u are essentially broadcasting to all and sundry. That should include mtnl, vsnl, msn, yahoo etc., etc., etc.,

Google/Yahoo/others may not be using human readers but they surely have software agents which do profiling. They are bound by local laws to reveal critical information about users of their service.
I hope you are aware of case in china where Yahoo! is *accused* of providing critical info about a chinese blogger leading to his arrest. http://business.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,9075-2032242,00.html

Remember, in Kmail -> Settings -> Configure Kmail -> Misc -> On program exit, perform these tasks. There is an option called "Empty Trash". Sometimes its checked by default and Kmail deletes all your messages on exit which is really annoying at times.
wouldn't this delete only the trash folder ? Isn't that a good thing unless you store messages in your trash folder?

Just a warning for those unsuspecting souls like me...

Umm...gmail is freely available through online sign up. No need for invitations any more ;)

No. Many people like to empty their trash manually. Remember this deletes the trash folder everytime you close Kmail...
Maybe its a personal thing but i wouldn't really care much about losing messages in the trash folder. If you spilled the milk , then no use crying over it. ;-)
