Kmail Recovery

Kmail Recovery

Once we took the back of the /home/username directory , using the following commands you can recover your kmail without configuring the kmail settings.

These are should be done after closing the kmail application in your system.

1. scp -r [source server/pc]/home/ajeesh/.kde/share/apps/ [destination]ajeesh@10.10.2.24:/home/ajeesh/.kde/share/apps/kmail2
if you use root permission again we need to change the permission by using
chown -R ajeesh. .kde/share/apps/kmail2/

in destination server/PC
2. apps]$ mv kmail bak_kmail
3. apps]$ mv kmail2 kmail

After that
in Source server
4. scp -r [source server]/.kde/share/config/kmail* [destination server]kde/share/config/

we have to copy mail.eventsrc, kmail.notifyrc , kmailrc, kmailsnippetrc files

Now you have done the Kmail recovery without configuring your mail settings again.
