Hi,

this sounds like a problem with duplicated special collections (Inbox, Sent, 
Trash, ...). In Akonadi Console -> Browser tab check whether you don't have 
some of these collections duplicated in Local Folders (usually there's one 
folder in English and one localized in your language). Pick one, delete it, 
restart Akonadi and KMail should work again.
