Oh, I just checked with wireshark and saw it's already active, indeed. This
means KMail is leaking the mail hashes of my communication partners unencrypted
over the net to a third party. So I just wanted to make sure that the
configurability is not just a KAddressbook thing but system wide (KDEPIM wide).
I hope I'm not too annoying, but such an option (by default off) in KMail 4.*
would also be important.

As a proposal: The optimal solution - IMHO - would be to enable it only for
certain groups of contacts (like only check for contacts in the friends,
collegues or unknown group), addressbooks (only for my private carddav or only
the companies LDAP), - in the case of KMail - only for certain e-mail-addresses
(like only my gmail-address, not for the work one) or mail-accounts (only for
mails downloaded from/stored on the gmail-account, not my private server at
home). So many possibilities ;-)

Of course these options are a lot of work - so just deactivating it in total
would already be helpful. These would just be an awesome improvement to make it
much more useful in the long run!

I hope you don't see this as overly negative feedback and understand why this
could be very important for some people. So, let me also thank you again for
the nice idea!
