No, kmail is not *just* a MUA. Mutt *is* a Mail-User-Agent.
the *nix way is to do one thing and do it *very* well. I use fetchmail
to obtain email, procmail to sort/deliver incoming mail, mutt to read/reply to
email, and postfix to send mail. These four apps do everything that
kamil does and do it better and more configurable.
ps. Please don't top-post, that's the win/lookout way, ie: anything
but normal.
