Hmm - I'm both owner and group, but my permissions are -rw-rw-r-- - I wonder 
whether the world read flag is needed for it to work correctly.  I suspect 
that akonadi may be a user that needs to read - guesswork, but it may be worth 
a try - you can always revert if it doesn't solve the problem.

Kontact is the container if you can see KMail, KAddressbook, KOrganizer etc in 
the navigation panel.  If you start KMail alone, you won't see them.  I have 
KMail 1.13.1, KDE 4.4.1, but Fedora 12.  I don't know whether there's any 
significant difference between the F11 version and the F12 one.

Try the permissions - you've nothing to lose.
