Thanks for your opinion, I'll think about it.

This should not happen; the Local Folders resource should be created

Yes, this is expected, that's why I defined the `rm` instruction as an 
alternative. I'll add to UPDATING that it will require some reconfiguration.

There is a checkbox in KMail which let's you shutdown the resource when KMail
