POP and IMAP are two very different animals. AFAIK Kmail was designed as
a POP client and had IMAP added later. Every so often I take another
look at Kmail's IMAP support and get the impression it's still not quite
there, e.g. when reconnecting to a large folder it seemed to spend an
inordinate amount of time doing something (indexing? synching? cacheing?
no idea) before I could see any messages. Note that I don't mean the
first visit to the folder, which would be understandable, but every
visit.

I haven't tried the latest version so maybe that's all improved now, but
changing MUAs is something one tries not to do often, which is why I've
stuck with Evo despite its faults. I have to say I also find Kmail's UI
rather garish compared to Evo's, but that's personal taste.
