Perhaps the following can make the situation a bit clearer:

a) There _was_ a tiny little bug in KMail which I fixed during this: it
   ignored the possibility that the KURL::List could have encodings
   set in the urls.

b) This bug was never happening: simply because the calling code did
   not use any KURL's with encodings set in the first place but it used
   just a QStringlist: because of the missing possibility of calling
   KApplication::invokeMailer with a KURL::List parameter: there is
   only a function with a QStringlist param.

So using the KMailIface_stub providing arobust way to call KMail
without the need of adding a new function to kapplication.h.

Note that KMail is firing up KMail anyway --- at least when there are
IMAP ressources which is one of the Kolab projects most important issues.
