KDE apps, including Kontact, force me to use the KDE look and feel, and
pretty much ignore the GNOME settings I am used to. So KDE is just as
well forcing _its_ model on you, just a different model.
Of course a KDE vs. GNOME flamewar is not going to fix the problem that
evolution is a good application but just needs some fixing by someone
with a lot of time :-)

I didn't knew that GNOME and KDE _should_ integrate ;-) so I don't get
your point about KDE being forcing.
Anyway I belive that David tried to point out that KDE lets *you*
configure it fully as you want, while GNOME limits you because of all
usability stuff (HIG and so on).
Anyway after I have tried Evolution, Kontact and Thunderbird and
remained with Thunderbird.
