I've had a look at the mailtransport library, but I'm not sure it does what I 
want. The user currently has a simple configuration choice of sending via 
KMail or via sendmail, and I don't want to have to concern the user with any 
email settings beyond that. In addition, for each email, he can select which 
KMail identity to use as the sender identity.

I don't see how to use mailtransport without much more setting up than this. 
If I'm right, I would still want to use KMail to transmit emails, but it 
doesn't seem any longer to have the equivalent of the KDE3 DCOP function 
sendMessage() in MailTransportServiceIface.
