Perhaps I should clarify what I think the problem is.  I've solved my own
problem, since I now know how to find the mail file and also how to change its
location.  I see two things that need fixing:

1, If the mail is not *always* in ~/Mail, then the help file should not say
without qualification that it is there.

2. The kmail settings should include the location of the mail file, without any
reference to Akonadi.  It shouldn't be necessary for an ordinary user to know
anything about Akonadi, which is after all a tool for implementers.

To answer your question about KDE 4.5.3: if you bring up the kmail settings
from "Configure kmail", you get a tab with six choices: Identities, Accounts,
Appearance, Composer, Security, and Misc.  Nothing about "Entry", and nothing I
can find for setting the location of the mail file.
