Kontact: E-Mailing and
Calendaring
Kontact combines the functionality of a number of KDE applications into a convenient,
single interface for personal information management. These applications include KMail
for e-mail, KOrganizer for the calendar, KAddressBook for contacts, KNode for
newsgroups, and KNotes for notes. Kontact integrates easily with the rest of the KDE
desktop and connects to a variety of groupware servers. It includes extra features, such
as journal entries, Spam and virus filtering, and an RSS reader.
Start Kontact from the main menu. Alternatively, press Alt + F2 and enter kontact .
You can also open the individual components instead of the combined application if
you only need partial functionality.

5.1 Kontact Overview

The default window view is shown in
Figure 5.1, "The Kontact Summary View"
(page 44). Use the icons in the left section to access the different components. The
Summary provides basic information, including upcoming birthdays and to-dos and the
number of new mail messages. The news section can access RSS feeds to provide up-
dated news of interest to you. Use Settings > Configure Summary View to configure
the information displayed.
