kmail and new mail

I have fetchmail retrieving my mail from a pop account, delivering it to 
procmail which distributes it to the appropriate maildir directories. Mail is 
arriving as it should. However, whenever I start kMail, it does not 
automatically show me which folders have new mail unless I 'click' on each 
folder. Obviously, this is a bit inconvient if you have to click on each of 
your 30 folders (or more) just to see if you have any new mail.

Also, similairily, if I leave kMail open, how do I get it to rescan the 
folders once in a while to check for new mail thats been delivered. I was 
using balsa for a bit and it had a rescan feature that worked for this 
situation but I don't see a similiar function in kMail.

My searches for an answer have found all kinds of complaints about the same 
thing but no answers. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thx.
