How did the migration work, I would be interested to know.
I just enabled kde-unstable to give the new pim beta a test run and have some dependency errors:
Processing Conflict: kde-l10n-4.6.2-1.fc15.1.noarch conflicts kde-l10n-kdepim
4.5.90
Processing Conflict: kde-l10n-4.6.2-1.fc15.1.noarch conflicts kde-l10n-kdepim- runtime > 4.5.90 Finished Dependency Resolution Error: kde-l10n conflicts with kdepim-runtime Error: kde-l10n conflicts with kdepim
I'm now running F15/x86_64 with kdepim-4.4.10
Cheers

I had no problems at all with migration, not for korganizer or kmail. I never even got a migration dialogue with kmail, but I believe that is because I already migrated to kmail2 a couple of months ago, before it was pulled and I had to revert. As a result, the information was already there when I upgraded again a couple of days ago, so all went without a hitch.
There is a curiosity with kmail: it shows both Kmail Folders and Local Folders. Kmail Folders are for downloading from pop3/imap mail servers and Local Folders is for sendmail, I guess.
The strange thing is that each has its own drafts, sent, templates (these 3 can be set per identity); outbox and trash folders, but when I delete email originating from a pop3 account (ie., from Kmail Folders/inbox), it goes into Local Folders/trash and there is no way I can find to make it go into Kmail Folders/trash. Likewise, when I send an email using a pop3 account, it goes into Local Folders/outbox before going into Kmail Folders/sent-mail. The Kmail Folders outbox and Kmail Folders trash are never used.

OK many thanks for this information, sadly it was the migration that was failing for me in earlier releases so I had to revert back to pim 4.4.xx
If I can get the dependency errors sorted out I will try 4.5.9.x again. I'm still struggling with those.

I used to use British English, but American English is enabled by default. Not all help files are in British English and Canadian English spelling is an unofficial mish-mash of GB-En and US-En, so I have given up fighting it. I spell some words the British way and some the US-American way, so only a combined GB/US English spell checker would serve my use case.
I follow the doubling of the consonant at the end rule, if preceded by a vowel, eg., tunnelled labelled, but I don't like the look with focussed so I use American focused; I always use British -our instead of American -or in honour, valour, colour, etc.; but the British distinction between -ise and - ize is so confusing (I believe you use -ise when the word was borrowed from French, but -ize when it was borrowed from Latin), so I use American -ize; I do sometimes distinguish between practice and practise; and I kind of like using oe in foetus, oesophagus and diarrhoea because they follow my native German, but they look a bit pedantic, so I don't usually bother; but I insist on moustache instead of mustache, but I hate the British tache and use stache for short.

Thre has been a discussion on the developers' list about the confusion this has caused. I don't recall which one will remain, but you won't have both in later versions.

Ah OK.. I'll hang tight then as I won't remove kde-l10n just to test pim-4.5.95.
If I get time I'll rebuild the packages here next week.
Thanks for the info.

The kde-l10n conflicts should be sorted out now (for the past few days).

OK Rex, I'll try and have a test session over the holidays.

OK, everything installed fine Rex, migration however fails miserably, so many pop up error boxes I lost count. With none of my folders imported.
I'll re-install and try to debug this hopefully over the weekend, any tips on getting a more meaningful log would be most helpful.
