One has to be careful. For example, Kmail (from KDE) uses .kde to store all
the mail. If some one deletes the .kde directory thinking that it is just a
bunch of rc files they would be in for a nice surprise.
Same goes for .sylpheed .sylpheed-claws and probably other mail clients.
My Sylpheed (currently 2.5.0beta1 on Sid, but I believe it's been like
this for a while) stores mail by default in ~/Mail, not
under ~/.sylpheed*, although there is some important stuff in the
latter location(s), most notably the addressbooks.
