How are you going to handle things like the fact that KMail supports features 
that kcmemail does not, like multiple incoming accounts. This will only 
continue with time for instance now we have identity based pgp user 
identities.

I'm not sure what kcmemail is intended to configure, I get the feeling that 
integration with KMail was something that was never really though about.

If you (or anyone else) would like to contribute to KMail adding smtp auth 
support to KMail would be a nice way to start. I guess that requires changing 
the KMail configuration dialog to add an smtp authentication checkbox, and 
kmsender.* to implement a third sendProc based on the smtp ioslave. Then this 
sendProc should be used when auth smtp is selected.

BFN,
Don.
