Excelllent - thanks Colm. As far as I was concerned that was a showstopper
so now I think it's time to go off and read the kmail manual from beginning
to end to get a handle on what it can do and then start using it. While I'm
here, is their a nice simple magic incantation to make it display the Euro.
I suppose it's time to face that particular bugaboo :-) (although I've
managed to avoid getting my hands dirty with Euro notes yet).
