Just for future's sake, in order to start Kontact instead of KMail when KDE 
logs in, I've renamed /usr/bin/kmail to /usr/bin/kmail.old, and 
symlinked /usr/bin/kontact to /usr/bin/kmail, and so far seems to be working 
fine. Since I couldn't stop KMail from starting on login due to the imap 
groupware resources, this was my next best option, since KMail doesn't 
actually do the groupware functionality (i.e. Calendar, Contacts, etc), 
Kontact does.
