As does mbox and sieve. I guess.
Can I keep those in kdepimlibs?
So:
imap4 -> kdepim(libs)
ldap -> kdebase/runtime
mbox -> kdepim(libs)
nntp -> kdebase/runtime
pop3 -> kdebase/runtime
sieve -> kdepim(libs)
smtp -> kdebase/runtime
??
Double-drat. This is confusing and irritating.
Someone please tell me where each kioslave should reside and I'll do the moving.
