I think this is nonsense.  I use kmail, and never kontact.  But to effectively 
use kmail, I also use kaddressbook.  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.
