Hi Franz You might want to take a look at the mswordview package. The mswordview program will convert an MSWord document to an HTML page. Another package (that I use) is catdoc. Catdoc includes a program called wordview that displays MSWord files sans formatting. Catdoc can also handle some Excell file types.
Catdoc will (optionally) install itself as a MIME.type to allow mail
programs such as mutt to view MSWord documents. I don't know about
KMail but suspect that it handles the mime system too.
