Correct.

Nobody wanted to remove it, Christian. I don't know why you insist on somebody 
wanting to do that :)

Anyway, given the code for korn and kbiff is there plus the new classes and 
stuff in Qt, it shouldn't be too hard for a newbie programmer to write a 
simple and small mailchecker app or improve korn/kbiff. Everyone is free to 
do that (yes, yes, do-it-yourself, I know, but my time is currently planned 
out)
