I think, you can tell KMail this in the option-menue. There you can choose the colors of the different types of mails and in one of the sub-menues (it's "Ordner" in my german KMail an I think it should be named "folder" in the english version) you can trigger, in how many seconds the mails are marked as read (blue) automaticaly from KMail. I think, the default item is 0 seconds, so KMail will mark messages immediately as read (blue) when you change folders or fetch new mails. My KMail shows me new Mails in red. When I left the infolder and reenter it (or when I fetch new mails from the server) then my unread messages are colored in blue and the newer one's are in red. The messages I'v touched are colored in black. I find this very helpfull.
