Use of KEMailSettings

[Daniel Vrátil]

Hi, 

I'm not aware of any replacement of KEmailSettings. Some of its components have been deprecated, but for Email address and similar its behavior seems to be unchanged since the KDE4 times, so I think you should be able to safely use it in your code.

Can anybody tell me what the status of KEMailSettings (in KConfig framework) is 
these days? In KDE 4 days, one of its functions was to return the email 
address for the user which was set in System Settings. That function still 
exists "getSetting(KEMailSettings::EmailAddress)", but what does it now 
return? Should its use be deprecated in current code?

I note that it's still used in KOrganizer and accountwizard.
