Ron, there's no URL, and I want to read how you did it. Could you
please give us the URL showing how you did the migration?

I hear ya brother! Getting rid of Kmail was my first and most
challenging step in kicking all KDE apps and libraries off all my
computers. No more 1.5 GB soprano-virtuoso.db files. No more rogue
dbus-daemon or nepomuk instances using 99% of my CPU: No more nepomuk
at all, and no more *misbehaved* dbus-daemon instances.

I hope the KDE developers have lots of fun forever adding more junk
onto their Tinkertoy class project, but *I* won't be part of their
audience.

Thanks,
