[Kde-accessibility] [orca-list] thunderbird getting bad to worst, is evolution a good choice?

[Frederik Gladhorn]

Hi,

in the discussion of accessible mail clients, I'll throw in a new candidate.

I'd like feedback on the latest KMail.
Last summer Jose Milan worked on improving that.
I have it reading the list of mails and individual email messages. It 
doesn't support text attributes simplifies the message from html to 
plain text right now.
Navigating it I still imagine to be quite difficult.
For testing please make sure that you have the latest qt-at-spi and a 
KDE 4.8.x version of KMail.

Thanks
Frederik
