[Kde-pim] KMail problems

Hello folks...

I've been hearing some neat things about KMail and wanting for awhile to
 try it out... and I did. I like the fact that my Palm address book is
my address book for e-mail, and that is helpful.

I'm running KMail 1.9.6 that comes with Kubuntu Feisty 7.04, KDE 3.5.6.
I'm having a lot of problems that have sent me back to Thunderbird for
now. First off, I often cannot even get my mail to come up. I realize
that 5369 is a lot of messages to have in your INBOX, but... I do, and I
don't really have a problem with that. However, KMail often decides not
to load anything. My other mailbox, however, appears only to have 820
e-mails in it. Sometimes it will bring them up, sometimes not.

Right now, my work INBOX has 38 unread e-mails. KMail does not seem to
think so for whatever reason (actually, as I was writing this, it came
up, but we're talking like over 45 seconds to bring the mail up when it
is somewhat familiar with the contents of the INBOX previously).

Is there anything I can do to look into this? I tried "mark folder read"
on another folder with 5700 messages in it, and attempting to read that
folder showed the "Refreshing folder contents..." blue gears screen for
as long as I was willing to wait. If that is how it is, I can't use
KMail, and I'd have to wonder if this doesn't affect a lot of people.

Thanks for your help and tell me what other info you might be interested in.
