Hi!

I am using KMail 1.13.7 on KDE 4.8.4 but there are same problems which started with KDE 4 and some more. The first one which is from KDE 4:
In "Local Folders" I have many other folders for people and FreeBSD mailings list, POP filters which work but if I got an email from someone which I don't have a filter than KMail looks like searching and searching and it is unusable to read emails fro example about half a minute or more and if I have more emails like this...it is annoying.
The new one is after update the last akonadi: when I click for example on Inbox folder (or any other one) I need to wait 5 or more seconds to open it.

I like to switch to another email client. Doe anyone have experience with GNOME Evolution under KDE, please? Or is better to install Thunderbird?
After that it is safe to uninstalled kdepim44 and and kdepin44-runtime and kdepimlibs 4.8?

Thanks in advance.

Various parts of KDE depend on kdepimlibs, and possibly kdepim-runtime, so I would not advise attempting to remove them.
As for both Evolution/Thunderbird, both should work fine under KDE.

Thunderbird can be persuaded to work _almost_ as well as KMail 1 - but you have to install a few addons to get that. Which ones will depend on which KMail features you particularly want.
