I agree, seeing how i use kmail, and kppp in a gnome dominated
enviroment. However it seems that there are pros & cons to this.
A con for examle: When incoming messages have a hyperlink in them
the associated application that runs is the KDE file manager wich in
turn loads the kde desktop icons over gnome icons.Needless to say
this is a feature that does not work verry well for me.
Just my 2 scents.
