I just set up an account for somebody using Outlook XP (the first I've seen 
it).  I noticed a great improvement over previous versions of Outlook, which 
I think would be very beneficial to have in KMail.

On the Add/Modify account page, after you enter all of your information, you 
can click a "Test Account Settings" button, which checks that it can connect 
to the POP3 server, list messages, send a message through your SMTP server, 
etc.  I'm a bit wary of the sending a test message - it's probably sending 
something to something@microsoft.com and recording who's using Outlook, but 
you could just send a friendly i18n()ized test message to the user's own 
E-Mail address.

It's sure a lot handier than entering everything, and then testing things 
manually.

Vertu sæll,
