I'm using a receiving account of type "Mbox" to read the email in
/var/spool/mail/ingo. It's currently 4400+ messages in a 161 meg mailfile.

Not by KDE, but I'm sure there is a utility to convert an mbox file into a 
maildir.

You may have to install some accessibility libraries/plugins/tools. You need 
accessibility if you want to use a screenreader or similar tools.

Looks like a broken configuration of one of your accounts. 
mixedmaildirresource is used by accounts of type "KMail Mail Folder". Look for 
files named ~/.config/akonadi_mixedmaildir_resource_NNNrc where NNN is some 
number.

I have two of those accounts. One of them points to my decades old KMail 
folder hierarchy stored at $HOME/Mail. The corresponding configuration file 
simply contains
```
[General]
Path[$e]=$HOME/Mail
```
KMail chokes on some of the larger folders with 100K+ messages, but otherwise 
I can read those old folders.
