What KPilot does is  
 
                if (!dcopptr->call("kmail", 
                        "KMailIface", 
                        "dcopAddMessage(QString,QString)", 
                        data, 
                        returnType, 
                        returnValue, 
                        true)) 
 
where data is created with  
 
	arg << kmailOutboxName << t.name(); 
 
(t is the tempfile name containing the message from the Pilot). Finally, \
KPilot determines the  name of KMail's outbox folder with 
 
QString PopMailConduit::getKMailOutbox() const 
{ 
        FUNCTIONSETUP; 
        // Read-only config file. This is code 
        // suggested by Don Sanders. It must be 
        // kept up-to-date with what KMail does. 
        // 
        // TODO: Completely broken since KMail disposed of this 
        // setting in KDE 3.0. No idea how to fix short of i18n("outbox"). 
        KSimpleConfig c(CSL1("kmailrc"),true); 
        c.setGroup("General"); 
 
        QString outbox = c.readEntry("outboxFolder"); 
        if (outbox.isEmpty()) 
        { 
                KConfigGroupSaver gs(fConfig,PopmailConduitFactory::group); \
  outbox = fConfig->readEntry("outboxFolder"); 
        } 
        return outbox; 
} 
 
 
and, as the comment shows, there's no way to discover the outbox name in \
KMail anymore.  The immediate fix in KPilot is to disable sending through \
KMail. However, the fact remains that  using an empty folder name in the  \
dcopAddMessage call apparently causes damage to KMail. \
