And it should be possible for Gnome/Sawfish/Icewm/Blackbox/fvwm/whatever
users to use KMail without the need to install kdebase just to get
those two slaves. Yes, I know. The distributors should ... blablabla.
What about people who prefer to compile from source? After all KDE
releases source code only, remember? With having the POP3 and the IMAP
slave in kdebase you force those people to download the huge kdebase
tarball just for the tiny POP3 and IMAP ioslaves:
kde/3.1> du -s kdebase/kioslave/pop3/ kdebase/kioslave/imap4/ kdebase/
72 kdebase/kioslave/pop3
288 kdebase/kioslave/imap4
52416 kdebase
That's ridiculous.

Ingo
