You will have no problems using it together with kmail (which I used to do) but not simultaneously of course. I don't use kmail anymore because there are some oddities about it that drive me insane .. but that is another story. My mail combination is MTA = Postfix, MDA = procmail, MUA = Mutt, Spam catcher = Spamassassin. It works well except I hate procmail beyone rationality, but the setup works well. -- Regards Cliff Sarginson The Netherlands Email: cls@raggedclown.net Tel : +31 (0)10 4764595 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
