Hello,
I've recently switched from MATE to KDE. It's a really good DE but KMail is insanely difficult to configure... on Thunderbird you can add many account easily, but on Kmail I got many problems, authentication errors, identity issues and akonadi crashes... and it's still not working.

I've added a Gmail account and it (seems to) work, but when I add other accounts I got many problems and also if configured I can't understand why I have to create many identities and I can't use a single identity for each account as any other email client...
I would like to use KMail to have the best KDE experience, but it's really hard to configure... After some hours spent trying to configure only THREE working accounts, I'm thinking to install Thunderbird... can anyone help me please?

Hi!

For private use. the easiest would be to create a new identity - including sending and receiving accounts bound to it - for every mail-address you want to add. The concept of identities is a bit confusingly. See configure-identity for an introduction. It basically helps you if you have a lot of service-addresses which you want to combine to a "my services"-Identity, so you can answer all incoming mails from service@, info@, whatever@ with one account set up in your identity.

Ok thanks for yor reply
It's *really* confusing IMHO
