It's deep and hard to find, but Gmail does have a "unique application 
password", generated by Gmail, which when pasted into Kmail works as 
a POP3 password for authentication.

I have Kmail pulling POP3 from port 995 using that function and it's 
working fine. Sending from Kmail is by SMTP through my ISP.
