Cool!

I think this might also help to with our discussion of the shutdown issue.

While it is of course still bad to have one application influence the 
online/offline state of resources, very visible options for configuring that 
could make this acceptable.

I imagine that each resource in KMail has three additional options:

- Include in startup checks (maybe default to false)
- Include in manual cheks (default to true)
- Switch to offline on shutdown (default to false)

Users who are just using KMail can then get pretty much the same behavior they 
have now.

Cheers,
Kevin
