IMAP IDLE support is available in the akonadi resource. Kmail hasn't been
ported to akonadi yet, so it's definitely not in KDE SC 4.4. If developers have
enough time, it could be in KDE SC 4.5 or maybe even later. Akonadi support has
been announced for Mailody almost two years ago (see mailody.net), but there
haven't been any news since June 2008.

IMAP IDLE support would make kmail competitive again (e.g. thunderbird does
support it) as IMAP gets more and more popular (e.g. gmail offering IMAP access
with IDLE), but switching to akonadi is just not that trivial.
