-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Kmail is TOTALLY configurable so there shouldn't be a problem getting it to do exactly what you want. I think what you're expecting or wanting for the storage end is "Store as Flat Files." That way they're just plain text and not where you need to open Kmail in order to view or manipulate certain messages. Is this what you're wanting?
