At least I would like to see this (for the reasons said earlier and 
maybe some more).

Then there is always the hope of a Mozilla Kroupware client ...
I'm actually looking forward to this (multiplatform Kroupware client, I 
like the Mozilla mail client better than kmail, maybe this will change 
in the KDE future).

What is in the Kroupware project up to now is really a good start and it 
is already usable.
Good work!
