I don't think it makes any sense to try to replace the crypto
infrastructure (OpenPGP and S/MIME) in KMail by some Qt Crypto
Architecture approach. It took two commercial projects to get it right.
You wrote that there's a provider using gnupg. Does it use gpgme or the
gpg-command? If it uses the latter then you better dump it immediately.
If you want to interface with gpg then using gpgme is a must (say the
GnuPG developers). Note, that we have nice wrappers in kdepim: gpgmepp
(which obviously is a C++ wrapper for gpgme) and qgpgme (which mainly
adds Qt event loop integration).
