I very much use KMail. But sometimes I do need to use Webmail say if I
am not on my workstation.

Worth mentioning to Anoop, if you're not on a webpage in Konqueror, you
can't select the rendering engine via View > View Mode. If you're in a
file manager session, it will only show you view options for changing
the Window display (Icons, List, Details etc...).
Alexey mentions installing "webkitpart". I think its probably already
installed if you changed the default layout renderer via System Settings
(you wouldn't have had the option I don't think).
Cheers, Mitch.
