  I'll do so.  But I'm in the midst of something you may want to
add -- or put some warning.

  As I'd mentioned earlier, I've been using kmail mostly.  I'd
started the import mail round 6.00am & wondered why it was taking
so long (it hadn't finished -- I killed it about 30 minutes ago).
It finally occured to me that kmail doesn't delete any message it
receives, it simply hides it.

  Now, looking at a little over half of the messages from kmal, I
find over 3500 I get to delete from cscmail.

  Rule:  Never, ever import mail from kmail folders.

  Once I get the stuff kmail was supposed to have deleted out of
cscmail, I'll get it set up.

  Oh, the colour trouble.  I couldn't find the file you'd
referred to (not even the path, or rather the end of it) in the
other e-mail.  I'd copied the cscmailrc from root & edited it,
I'd copied it into my user's .cscmail as gtkrc & back to
csmailrc, opening cscmail & closing each time but nothing
changed.  I'd even fooled with the colour settings.

  I'd finally changed from the Terminal theme to Wireframe.
While I kind of preferred all the bright green of Terminal, I can
deal with the purple of Wireframe since I can now see the fonts
as white on a black background in the Compose Message window (the
received mail does though, show up as the colours I'd set in
cscmail settings).

  Thanks CZ.  I'll be up & running eventually.
