Hello, same problem here (Ubuntu 15.10)

kmail/akonadi is almost unusable with slow/unresponsive imap servers. This bug
is triggered easily with davmail as it slowly processes every request via the
web interface of exchange. However it is currently the only way to access
certain enterprise servers running exchange. 

As a workaround (NOT A FIX) a was playing with some davmail and kde network
properties
to mitigate the issue:

davmail (~/.davmail.properties):
davmail.folderSizeLimit=100 (Limit maximum number of messages to be checked (I
had 6000 mails which never went through without issues))
davmail.enableKeepAlive=true (davmail will frequently respond to the connected
client while it is waiting for the exchange response)

In addition I set the KDE global network settings (System Settings ->
Network/Settings ->  Connection Preferences: "Socket read" and "Server
response" to 3600 seconds)

While this helps it doe not fix the really issue that kmail is way to impatient
when there
are slow connections/large emails/large folders.
