There are several unresolved issues with integrating KAB and KMail, I'm 
working on solving them.

I can see at least one problem with the current API, it doesn't allow address 
book entries to contain custom fields. I can work around this limitation if 
need be, but the work around won't be pretty.

I don't know if there is an easy way to overcome this limitation, I'm not 
sure whether KAB should be made exempt from the freeze in order to try.

I don't have a lot of time left to look into these issues. I'm leaving for 
another job on the other side of the planet in a fortnight and are unsure of 
how much time I will have to work on this kind of stuff (at least for awhile 
I will have less time). I don't really have time to work on KAB as well as 
the other KDE stuff I'm doing.

BFN,
Don.
