I've had that trouble for years with kmail, long before kmail2 was a twinkle 
in a demented programmer's eye. It used to happen especially if I hadn't had 
kmail open for a couple of days. I'd then get up to half-a-dozen copies of 
each mail. It would then settle down if I kept kmail running 24/7.

The only difference I see with kmail2 and multiple copies is that I get 
windows popping up warning of a conflict and asking if I want to keep the 
left-hand message, or the right, or both - as if I had a clue which I 
needed!

As kmail2 has another bug where many messages are empty when I open them, 
getting multiple copies can be a blessing. What a shambles!
