[IRCServices] Simple E-mail Integration.

[Jason at GCN]

Well when a nick is dropped, services would have to delete the pop account.  
As far as linking nicks, I don't see any problem as services would not be 
able to notify the user of new e-mail in the first place.  I understand that 
it is unlikely that will become a feature in services, but I was wondering 
if anyone out there interested could help me in integrating this.
