Work good on openSUSE 13.1 with KDE 4.14.1. Kontact is also version 
4.14.1. Have not seen this problem for at least last three release of 
openSUSE. I send a newsletter to about Seventy people in 6 lists once a 
month. Biggest is 34 people and smallest is 3 people. Current version of 
kmail is 4.14.1 also. I will be testing on the up coming openSUSE 13.2 
real soon. Need to solve problem with same messages being downloaded 
every time I go into the inbox. I think I have 4.14.3 on my 13.2 setup.

Is there some patch that the Kubuntu is leaving out by accident?

Sorry I can't help more.
