OK, I think I've found a way to hack the KMail config + cache to get rid of the
"Public Folders" when connecting to an Exchange Servers via IMAP:

* Close KMail
* Open ~/.kde4/share/config/kmailrc
* Find the "Account" section corresponding to your Exchange account.  This will
probably have a line near the top saying: 2="Public Folders/" or similar. 
Delete that line.  Check for other lines in the section that might refer to
that folder too.
* Ensure locally-subscribed-folders=true
* Set locallyUnsubscribedFolders=/Public Folders/
* Go to ~/.kde4/apps/kmail/dimap and do "ls -la"
* Go into the directory that looks like .xxxxx.directory, that refers to your
exchange account.
* do ls -la again
* Remove *all files & folders* referring to "Public Folders".  There should be
"Public Folders", ".Public Folders.directory", and some other files.  Make sure
they're all gone.
* Start KMail and cross your fingers :)

I hope this helps someone; get in touch if you need more help.
