Have uninstalled claws, but there are still a heap of folders left around. I would have thought an uninstall would remove all the garbage.

In particular is the ../Mail folder, it still has claws files in it, and I'd like to use that for KMail.

Can I just delete those claws folders and files without impacting upon 8.04 ?

Hello, for what I know I think that you cannot use that folder with KMail, since they are completely different mail clients ( i can be wrong of course): you can safely delete the Mail folder in your home directory, then press Ctrl+H to visualize hidden files and delete the folder ".claws-mail".
Cheers
