An update to my 2018 KDE Kontact / E-Mail talk showing the status and problems of an enterprise user of Kmail and Co. This was eight years ago, let's check what has changed and where we need to do better:

I am using Kontact on a daily basis, in an environment with lots of E-Mails and Gigabytes of data and e.g. a variety of calendars. Three mail accounts, three different IMAP-Servers, five+ desktops to take care of, archiving, filtering, calendaring, using Kontact keyboard-only (almost), in mailing lists, searching, per-folder settings, import/export of data,

I want to share my insights and get a discussion going - hopefully with the audience - that this presentation might spark with the goal of making Kontact(Kde-PIM) better. There's no other working Enterprise level Mail/Groupware Client for Linux with so many great features.

I learnt a lot about debugging Kontact and Kmail for my needs, and even fixing with some akonaditools. I would love to present my findings and I hope to get a discussion going - with some developers? - how to:

use
troubleshoot
quick setup
copy
revert/purge
