There are many people (like me) for whom IMAP is not an option, due to
bullheadedness of network admins or otherwise. After all, Ximian thought
WebDav support was important enough to *change* for it, to the tune of
70 bucks (Ximian connector uses WebDAV). Right now I am *forced* to use
connector because KMail lacks this WebDav support, and I suspect others
would be in the same boat.

IMO WebDav support for KMail / Kontact should be implemented if it would
be as easy as it seems to me
