Hi, folks...I am addressing the programmers and maintainers of KDE-PIM. I really like KMail/KDE-PIM, but I have a huge problem -- this application appears to be a massive resource hog. I run 64-bit Fedora 18/KDE and when Kmail is running, it really bogs down the computer. I'm not running a light-weight PC either... this is an AMD64 dual-core with 4 Gigs of RAM and plenty of swap space. As a non-programmer, I don't know what the problem is or how to fix it. I would ask that you folks look into doing what you can to make this application more friendly for "average" PCs. In my opinion, you shouldn't need an 8-core CPU with 20 Gigs of RAM in order to run a "Desktop" O/S and an email client. Granted, I usually run more than that, but that being said, I don't think I'm asking too much. Thunderbird works pretty well for my email, but I prefer the look and feel of KMail. It's what I'm used to, not to mention it has all my archived emails. _______________________________________________ KDE PIM users mailing list Subscription management: https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kdepim-users
