You should see which version of KDE your KMail belongs to if you open it and
select Help -> About KDE in the menu. Did you use KDE3 before you installed
KDE4 or were you installing both with your current Kubuntu install?
Do you remember if you were maybe asked to create a new wallet twice entering
different passwords?

Please check the following locations for .kwl files:
~/.kde/share/apps/kwallet
~/.kde4/share/apps/kwallet

I guess you'll find one kdewallet.kwl in both of these locations. You can do
the following and try if it works for you:
1) Quit KMail
2) Move the ~/.kde/share/apps/kwallet/kdewallet.kwl to a safe place (it
contains your passwords).
3) Restart KMail and enter your mail passwords. It will ask you to create a new
wallet
4) Close KMail and reboot
5) Reopen KMail and check if the password you entered in 3) still works.

If you feel unsure about one of the steps (I don't know your level), please
rather ask again instead of risking your secret data.
