I had that enabled already, but thanks anyway. 
I hope someone else has an idea what's going on. I would hate to have to use another email client. 
Maybe my whole installation is somehow trashed. I can't manually check for mail, and my question and your reply hasn't arrived yet in KMail, only on phone. 

Also I noticed there was no trash folder configured - at the same place as the other setting - and when opening the dialog to set it, no folders was shown.
