Oh, I forgot to include LDAP in my list of things that would be nice to do,
(and improved i18n support would be good too while I remember it).

Well someone volunteered to do IMAP, they seemed to be focussed on working with
KMail 1.0.28, I haven't heard back from them for awhile now. 

I'm not too worried about trying to do the IMAP stuff as a seperate component
at the moment. I think I would prefer just to get something working reliably
first before trying to make it a component. Also I was thinking a kioslave
should be used for the IMAP stuff so to a certain extent that part of it would
be a seperate component.

BFN,
Don.
