well, in case of IMAP offline mode, it's actually most of the time only 
locally i.e. the mail is still complete on the server, but I don't know any 
way to tell KMail2 to fetch it and index it again. I have quite some mails 
all from end of 2011 where KMail2 presents me only the mail header. Take a 
look with Trojíta and you'll see that the server has still the complete 
mail.
