No. It's just used for being able to view saved messages with KMail. I 
guess that kmail_view.desktop was simply copied from kmail.desktop. 
Yeah, indeed, this DocPath entry has been in this desktop files since it 
has first been committed to svn. Please remove it.

Yeah. Makes sense. This would also allow people to have kmail and kmail2 
installed in parallel.
