I am not sure to understand this as well. If I am right, the closest thing I 
know is Opera mail client. The idea to have a specific "webbrowser" that 
opens up all webmails from different accounts has limitations, ie gmail does 
not allow multiple connections over a single instance of, say, firefox 
(tested, and it's the same with my webhost phpnet.org).

It would maybe be nice to have a webbrowser dedicated to webmail functionality 
alone, but it looks to me way outside the kmail scope, and that modern 
browsers tend to _add_ mailclient-ing abilities rather that restrict web-ing 
abilities. Now, nobody prevent you from posting a wish on the bugs list for 
kde-pim & gather 2000 signatures - with bandwith & speed growing, you may be 
a precursor in what will be standard tomorrow, who knows ? From Cambodia, I 
can tell you it's not an option.

Cheers

Jean-Philippe
