  http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=104956#c52 explains all the horror
of the situation.

  Ping daniel ? etch is close, and we *really* need to do something
here. I've looked at the source, disabling dimap seems quite ...
difficult to do, and upstream is clearly unwilling to fix it before KDE
4 wich will be too late.

  so fixing it (with a patch presumably) won't be easy and will need
testing. we should work on it. I lack the essential qualities to write
that patch sadly, and I've not found any on the web.
