Well the thing is that to get at the messages one would need some sort of
URI anyways so, I figured why not pop://*.  Actually it can easily do it
all by itself, because the pop3 slave emits a mimetype of message/rfc822
so assuming that's handled by say kmail or whatever, konqy really doesn't
need to be tweaked too much...
