contacts and appointment etc. are stored in special imap folders. each
contact etc. is one message. the data is stored in xml. you are not
supposed to read these messages manually. best practice is to configure
kmail to hide the groupware folders. (workgroup tab in misc, check "hide
workgroup folders")
