As I understand it, Kmail requires kaddressbook, and kaddressbook requires akonadi/nepomuk for contact indexing and lookups. Unless you never send mail, or have all of your contact's addresses memorized and don't mind manually typing them every time, you probably use kaddressbook as well -- even if you don't explicitly start the kaddressbook gui. -- Art Alexion _______________________________________________ KDE PIM users mailing list kdepim-users@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kdepim-users
