running programs as another user from menu



Got a strange question... is there a way to add a program to the menu in
kde but run as another user? I'm considering setting up a portion of my
mailing lists to go to a separate user account on my home computer so that
I can have two pine sessions running at the same time, one for my 'regular'
mail and one for this subset of mailing lists. Is there a way I can set up
a menu item that access pine from that user's point of view while being
logged in as my 'default' user? Or is the only way for me to do this to
open up a konsole window, telnet to localhost, log in as that user and
_then_ start pine?
