That would be great actually. Also goes for other online messaging systems (e.g. forums/messageboards Inboxes). It's crazy generating extra "email" when it could be managed as like an (IMAPish) folder.

Might be easier if a spec can be drawn up to manage this sort of stuff? Then sites/systems like this can expose some nice and simple APIs rather than rely on HTML parsing from the normal site's output.

Answerin myself...

I've looked around and found that:
- there are no external APIs in phpbb
- facebook API (notifications) is pretty simple XML affair
- I could probably to construct a similar APIs in WordPress(easy) & Phpbb (it's been a while)

So the 'hard bit' would be writing the code from within KDE - especially given I've not written a KDE app before. Does anyone with relevant Kontact/Kmail plugin experience have any words of wisdom about how to go about this?

What's the current situation with the changeover to KDE4/new systems for data integration etc.?

Ta.

Support for posting journals to Wordpress and getting posts from it is already in Kontact for 4.1.
