Mailody embedded in Kontact

Here you can see Mailody embedded in Kontact. A wish a lot of people have asked me in the past few years. So there you have it.

There still is a lot of work to do, mainly due to kontact bugs and limitation I think though:
- I’ve no idea how the statusbar is supposed to work in the embedded mode, so I just disabled most of it.
- I’ve no idea why my Mailody toolbar isn’t visible in Kontact.
- I’ve no idea why QDockWidgets in my composer (separate QMainWindow) do not work at all or why the toolbar isn’t visible.
- I’ve no idea why I’ve all those duplicates in the left bar

So, if you are interested in fixing one of those, let me know ;-) I’m happy the initial integration is there though.

    Did you make an XML rc file for MailodyPart? Here’s an example:

    < !DOCTYPE kpartgui SYSTEM "kpartgui.dtd">




    A more complicated one is available in KMail’s source tree.

    It got rid of my XML!
