How would one run Kontact on Windows?
Also, how would it interface with Windows Outlook?

At a quick look, I was not able to see
where either Outlook or KMail keep their contacts.
KMail is pretty good at completing email addresses for me,
but I couldn't see where it keeps this data.

To be honest, I am not clear about the connection, if any,
between Kontact and KAddressBook and KMail.
Do they all share the same std.vcf's?

It does seem that VCF format is a sort of link between KDE and Windows,
but I don't see how to exploit it.
