Hi,

you probably already know that I took maintainership of KMail over from Ingo. 
Well, I felt like writing some sort of announcement, so this is it.

Thanks to Ingo for maintaining KMail over the years, you did a great job of 
maintaining the best mail application for Linux (and soon others). I hope 
you'll still hang around.

As a maintainer, I'll mostly continue doing what I do know, which is reviewing 
commits and patches, reading and dealing with bug reports and sometimes even 
having the time to do a commit.
I'll also continue to nag about coding style and incorrect indentation, I hope 
that this is not too annoying.
And now, as a maintainer, I probably also have to finally try out IMAP and fix 
the worst bugs :)

Of course, an application like KMail is much too big for a single person, so I 
am very happy to have the great folks of KDAB also working on it. Equally 
important are all the other short-term or long-term contributors, thanks to 
them, your work is much appreciated and helps a lot! We really need every 
help we can get.

I'll begin my maintainership with absence, since I have exams in two weeks and 
still need to learn a lot for it, so I have to force myself to stay away from 
KDE a bit.

I hope I will be a good maintainer, any suggestions are certainly welcome. 
Working together with you so far was very enjoyable, the PIM community is 
just great.

Let's make KMail and KDEPIM rock!

Regards,
Thomas
