Hi, 1. I'm wanting to move my Kubuntu to another computer, and have looked at the docs on the KDE website, ... http://userbase.kde.org/KMail/FAQs_Hints_and_Tips#Transfer_mail_and_settings_to_another_computer_.28or_another_user_account_on_the_same_machine.29 Are these documents completely up to date ? The docs state everything under ~/.local/share, but there are lots of paths there: :~/.local/share$ ls akonadi backintime gsettings-data-convert icc mime recently- used.xbel sbackup totem ubuntuone user-places.xbel.bak vlc zeitgeist applications contacts gvfs-metadata local-mail notes rhythmbox telepathy Trash user-places.xbel user-places.xbel.tbcache webkit surely ONLY the akonadi path, and not the others ?? 2. I had a note about "For the address book you also need ~/.local/share/contacts", however that path is empty, but will copy it anyway. 3. Am currently running Ubuntu 12.04 (Kubuntu desktop), and wanting to update to version 13.10 (saucy). The KMail version is Version 4.8.5 Using KDE Development Platform 4.8.5 (4.8.5) From the package lists, it seems that Ubuntu 13.10 has KMail version of 4.4.11.2 ( 4:4.11.2-0ubuntu1: amd64 i386). How come I'm on an older release of Ubuntu, but a later release of KMail. 4. For KWallet, there is also ~/.kde/share/apps/kwallet/kdewallet.kwl 5. What about all the emails ? Do I simply copy them all into their appropriate paths/folders, or do I use "Import Messages". All my emails are single files per email.
