Sorry, I probably phrased this badly.

I didn't mean to imply that applications would not use those APIs, I rather 
wanted to voice my opinion that mail sending capability would be a nice 
addition to the (via D-Bus) shared infrastructure.

Even if we recommend that KDE applications rather use the APIs directly (the 
service implementation obviously would do this as well), sending mail is 
often interesting for third party applications as well (e.g. OpenOffice.org).

Cheers,
Kevin
