it also looks like kmail (actually kontact) doesn't correctly
communicate with kioslave when kioslave is running the
imap4 library.

it seems to instantly return without actually hitting the firewall.

fireflier _should_ be spewing up a popup for kioslave doing
access to port 143 - and it isn't.

odd....

Truth, honesty and respect are rare commodities that all spring from
the same well: Love.  If you love yourself and everyone and everything
