Dear community
My upgrade went very smooth. Only little problems, which I could solve by myself.
Thanks for great work by developpers.
There a 2 issues for me:
1. Kmail accounts go OFFLINE when in controlcenter / energy -> Sleep mode after serveral 
(here: 15 min.) minutes is activates.
After wake up all accounts show OFFLINE; tryied to 'restart postbox' does not work. ONLY 
logout of sesseion and re-login is a workaround. Why ? 
2. As in Debian 12 I also activated local-mail as postbox (added userdefined maildir 
postbox referring to /var/mail). But NO mails appear with Kmail/postbox 'mail'. although 
in /var/mail/ I see the file 'herbert' with mails inside !

Can you give a notice about these issues ?
Happy New Year.
Herbert Schwarzer
