Hello,

I'd like to write an application to help me programmatically  sort and delete 
some emails that are currently stored in maildirs belonging to kmail. (I mean 
kmail receives, handles and stores the emails, but I'd like a 3rd-party 
software to delete the emails under certain conditions).

I can write the application to browse the maildirs, and parse the MIME. I have 
found a couple of APIs that I might use (any recommendations?).

But where I am a bit uncertain, is how to handle the deletion of the emails. 
Deleting a specific email is certainly easy (delete the corresponding file), 
but 
what about regenerating indexes?

Wouldn't I be better off using some d-bus API? Let kmail perform the deletion 
itself? Does one d-bus API exist for email deletion?

And by the way, where is the d-bus API for kmail documented? I searched but 
found nothing.

Would you recommend any specific API to browse the maildirs, parse the MIME 
and, obviously, delete the emails from within my application?


Thanks,

Augustin.
