Using KMail to access folders on another partition

HI

Is it possible to configure KMAIL so that the INBOX SENTITEMS etc etc are pointing to another partition? I have two hard drives and my original KMAIL is sitting on another HDD eg HDB, and would like to use those original configurations.

Thanks
Shelton

I'm not aware of a setting in the configure dialog, but open the file ~/.kde/share/config/kmailrc in your favourite editor (while Kontact/KMail is not running). You will find an option called folders in the General group. In that option you can enter the path to your mail directory on your other partition.
