When kmail started playing up for me, I am on 4.7.2 OpenSuse package, I took the opportunity to set up my own imap server, cyrus, and to use sieve to filter my mail into folders on the server. This has worked for me and kmail has a good sieve editor. For those filter actions and my multiple identities I still use kmail but the removal of the rather large array of filters has allowed kmail to run well enough. Anyone else tried this setup?
