I haven't used such a scratchpad.

It means that there aren't so many alternatives and that kmail is a very good 
one as long as it works.

Ha you should try it some time just to see what kind of understatement that 
is.  Even after trying to delete all that was imported and trying to configure 
it from scratch, it turned out that it was still totally messed up.  Kmail 
only kept saying it can't find the server --- which is a great error message 
because it doesn't tell you anything.  So I tried to remove all configuration 
of kmail, and still something remained and akonadictl fsck finds problems it 
can't fix.

Is there a list of files and/or instructions to deconfigure kmail for good 
without deleting your entire home directory?  And even if you delete it, I 
wouldn't be surprised if that weren't enough ...
