Unfortunately, it does not work here on my test x86 stable box. I have |
| 16 |
removed and added each resource more than a dozen times. POP3 seems to |
| 17 |
broadly work (but it creates duplicate messages which once deleted are |
| 18 |
recreated) and IMAP4 does not show any messages in the Inbox. The |
| 19 |
kaddressbook does not show the addresses. |

I've tried deleting akonadi databases, adding the resources or importing them |
| 22 |
and starting again many, many times to come to the conclusion that in my set |
| 23 |
up it just won't work. I hope that code progress eventually restores |
| 24 |
functionality which I consider absolutely basic - i.e. to be able to read my |
| 25 |
messages and use my addresses. |

Having wasted far too much time for no positive result I'm now in hope that |
| 28 |
trinity desktop will come up with a solution that I was sorry to see left |
| 29 |
behind - KDE 3.5. |
