I had forgot about Kopete.  I do use it.  I may can just save the one 
file/directory for Kopete and .mozilla.  I'll most likely just try the 
whole thing at first.  If it causes me grief, I can logout, go to a 
console and delete what I don't need.

I think I know what file Kopete uses.  I looked at it one time before.  
I think it is in a config directory or something.

UPS just ran.  I got what I need to get started with the testing at least.
