It's part of kdepim.

But I checked and it can't do anything useful with TNEF, it just displays a 
binary winmail.dat attachment and has no idea what to do with it.

A service menu is what you need there. Look at existing entries in 
/usr/share/kde4/services/ServiceMenus to see how they should look like. If 
you don't have any, install some KDE apps first. ;-) amarok, kdebase, 
kdebase-workspace, kdegraphics, kdemultimedia, kdenetwork, kdeplasma-addons, 
kdesdk, kdesvn, kdeutils, konq-plugins, kplayer and probably others install 
KDE 4 service menu files.
