well, after trying kmail & evolution, both failed miserably. evolution
crashed so much, I wanted to put a string on it and play like a yo-yo.
kmail wouild play nice setting up IMAP with my domain.
thunderbird has worked great for all my accounts, including setting up
most of mine using IMAP, filters, folder account associations...
enigmail... not sure what your issues were.
