Hi Daniel,

No https? No spop? No imaps?  No sftp?   NO.  If really necessary,
ask upstream to resolve the conflict.  Don't make Debian KDE not useable
before trying to find a real fix upstream.

Please don't 'solve' the conflict on the shoulders of Debians KDE users.
I really hate being forced to go back to some of the other big
linux distros.

  To me vi is Zen.  To use vi is to practice zen. Every command is
  a koan. Profound to the user, unintelligible to the uninitiated.
  You discover truth everytime you use it.
