  • mail tags in kmail?

    From Hans@21:1/5 to All on Thu May 16 18:20:01 2024
    Dear list,

    does anyone know, where kmail is storing its tags for mails? The tags I mean are those like "already read".

    Background: When I rsync the folder with my mails, which is here ~/.kde/ share/apps/kmail/mail , to another computer, then all new mails are tagged as "not read" on the target computer in kmail, although they were read on the source computer in kmail.

    Thus I believe, I did not rsync the tags, and they are stored somwhere else.

    Does one know where? I hope, it is not in akonadi, as this is to feasable to fiddly for me and implies too great danger to crash the whole thing.

    Thanks for any answer.

    Hans

    I've never done that but maybe this helps, from https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/kmail/kmail2/faq.html#transfer-mail-and-settings:

    6.10. How do I transfer my mail and settings to another computer (or to
    another user account on the same machine)?

    Use Tools -> Import/Export KMail Data... to import and export settings
    and data. Please see PIM Setting Exporter for details.
