Sounds like quite a valid explanation. I cannot find anywhere in Kopete where 
I tell it to use the KDE addressbook, however, and if I go into KDE Resources 
in the KDE Control Center, and untick the imap address book, making the 
standard file based resource the standard one, KMail still starts. Even if I 
don't start Kopete on logon, KMail still starts.

However, if I delete those resources, then KMail doesn't start on login, which 
thanks to your explanation I just found. This is quite annoying... If it 
started Kontact, I'd be a lot happier, as I prefer to have my PIM start 
rather than just the mail portion when I login. If anyone's interested in 
ideas for a patch... :)

Thanks for the pointers, Peter.
